Oddly the ISO document, part 4 (Transitional Migration Features) does discuss legacy markup for transitional documents. Otherwise, I could find no mention that ISO/IEC 29500-1:2016 is for legacy documents. There was quite a bit of discussion around whether 29500 was really required when 26300 covered much the same territory however duplication of effort when it comes to standards is close to a hallmark of the International Organization for Standardization and the International Electrotechnical Commission. Just look at the ISO/IEC 29166 document covering translation between ISO/IEC 26300 and ISO/IEC 29500 document formats.

I treat that sort of gobbledegook with the same disdain as the Prince did of his uncle's drunken revelry:

But to my mind, though I am native here
And to the manner born, it is a custom
More honor’d in the breach than the observance.
