I don't really have an opinion about whether set.mm and iset.mm should use the 
same definition as each other or not, but as for the options in iset.mm, we 
have http://us2.metamath.org/ileuni/nf3.html 
http://us2.metamath.org/ileuni/nf2.html and 
http://us2.metamath.org/ileuni/df-nf.html . Since we've shown these are 
equivalent in iset.mm, there isn't a practical difference between them (given 
the current axioms, anyway).

The nf4 one only holds in one direction: 
http://us2.metamath.org/ileuni/nf4r.html

To the extent that this is all about what the axioms are and which axioms are 
needed for what, I think iset.mm has been much less explored than set.mm that 
way. I wouldn't be surprised if we still have redundant predicate logic axioms 
(even after having eliminated a few), for example.
