The latter option is less preferred as there is more potential for screw-ups in the event of irregular ops (though admittedly less risk with a one-way nonstop flight)
You can not have a RPU applied to some of the passenger on a PNR and not others. It is all or none. So you would have to split to do a partial applications, so if only 2 clear is a acceptable option, make two PNRs and all to all. The irrops issue can be handled at time of irrops, the bigger issue is scattered seating if on multiple PNRs

As for CPU, the RPU will be a higher priority over the CPU.
