I have no idea what the legal issues are, but you definitely want to use
RM.PS, because it has paragraph numbers, which the ISO version does not.
The index refers to paragraph numbers, and everybody is in the habit of
referring to paragraph numbers when referencing a rule, so the ISO
version of the document is nearly useless.

Also, the ISO version is formatted for A4 paper, whereas RM.PS is
formatted for 8.5 x 11 paper.

Other than these kinds of formatting things, the two documents are
identical.
