Because the ROM was liberated and anyone can modify.

wrong. So what's different (really different, I am lazy and don't want
to read the documentation ;) and is it worth upgrading?

Well, the only "official" source for ROMs is HP's customer support
website. It is at version 2.09 (HP calls it "v.92").
However, Bernard Parisse (the original author of the CAS of the HP49)
has decided to release his work under the LGPL, and to provide some
unofficial extensions to it, such as an interactive geometry applet.
In order for that CAS to be of any use at all, it must be bundled with
a the rest of the calculator's Flash ROM. Mr. Parisse doesn't have
permission to release the rest of the ROM under the LGPL, but
apparently he does have an "in" with the powers-that-be at HP, because
he does appear to have authority to act as an original distributor of
the rest of the firmware solely for the purpose of making his CAS
functional.
Coincidentally, Mr. Parisse's ROM is backward compatible with the
original HP 49 calculator as well, and his website is now the only
means of keeping the HP-49's features up to date with its 49G+ and 50G
siblings.
I tend to think of it as not entirely dissimilar to the way in which
Sun uses the opensource OpenOffice.org as the basis for developing
technology that eventually goes into its proprietary StarOffice
suite. Or the way in which RedHat uses Fedora as the test bed for its
officially supported RHEL.

Thanks for clarification.

is some at all! Some bugs have been fixed (thanks to JYA!) but new ones
may have been introduced by the additional applications (I wonder where
the heck Mr. Parisse got the nibbles from to put those apps in ROM? I
thought they were already quite used up ;-) The included readme.txt
names some (all?) of the modifications (more details on bugs.hpcalc.org):
-Fix in summation, variable counter is now independant of global
variables (B210-7)
-Fix potential problem when using sum of sum like:
SUM(N=0,3,SUM(M=0,N,COMB(N,M-N)) (B210-6)
-Remove battery check before using serial port and writing to flash or
SD card (B210-6)
-Fix TRACE to check for square matrix (B210-5)
-Fix Lin Solve input form to convert matrix into array (B210-5)
-Add Periodic Table library (B210-5)
-Fix http://bugs.hpcalc.org/show_bug.cgi?id=228 (B210-4)
-Fix EqnLib solver menu when called from APPS application (B210)
that's very nice, isn't it? however B = "beta" :-o

From the evidence posted, past and present, one can deduce:
BP's ROM contains experimental beta features, on top of unreleased 2.10
(which isn't tested, and for which HP is not responsible)
Debug4x can get you the official 2.09 for your old 49G.
The "ARM ROMs" are made from "Saturn ROMs" with some instructions overlaid.
