Aviation oxygen is also guaranteed for a particular maximum moisture
level -- premise being that it would be 'a bad day' if there were excess
moisture and if it froze (impeding oxygen delivery) while at the
higher/colder altitudes.

Other than that, I'd agree that these three sources are, for most
practical purposes, identical aside from the cost.

Some more details including regulatory citations:

(Wondering if Santa is going to deliver a plane that will allow me to
finally start worrying about needing supplementary oxygen. Probably not,
but one can dream. :-) )
