If anyone has any thoughts I'd be open to a discussion. I skimmed through the differences on tldr;legal: my takeaway is they are pretty similar.

I believe the licenses are actually very different -- specifically this line:

Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright notice, 
this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the documentation 
and/or other materials provided with the distribution.

So LICENSE.md is an attribution license -- when you use RSColorPicker in an app, you need to include this license and copyright information in a documentation screen somewhere. MIT on the other hand is a more permissive non-attribution license.
