Changing from Bar(G) Pressure tx to Bar(A) Pressure tx

Why would the pressure transmitters be changed from Bar(G) to Bar(A) ones? The pressure in the flow measuring system has dropped from 25 Bar(G) to 5 Bar(G). Flow is worked out using ISO 5167.
 
5167 uses differential pressure for flow calulation.

So the use of an absolute pressure transmitter says that a flow computer is being used to convert from volumetric flow to mass flow with temperature and static pressure compensation.

Mass flow static pressure uses absolute units.
 
Bar G transmitters were used before the stream pressure dropped. So why now due to the lower pressure has Bar A tx's to be used? It is gas that is being measured.
