I'm sure RM ban them from flights. They're not banned from flights.

I suspect RM ban them like they ban everything else because they don't have the expertise to determine safety without inspection and jump for the lowest common denominator. Understandable but let's not say it's not possible because it is. All sorts of things can be flown, some need more paperwork, some don't.
Most aircraft also have high pressure O2 cylinders on board for use in emergencies.

Unfortunately you are confusing aircraft components, emergency equipment, passenger luggage, hold baggage, unaccompanied baggage & freight all of which have their own set of rules.

And that's before even getting to RM/PF rules,

Pressure vessels are banned in RM/PF public services, THAT'S IT ! IT'S THEIR SERVICE THEY CAN REFUSE ANYTHING THEY DON'T WANT TO CARRY !
