The main reason for 4-20mA is that 2-wire field instruments need to use 3.5mA to power their own electronics in order to make a measurement and to control the regulated output.
4-20mA is also, as you pointed out, a range in which the energy in the circuit is low enough to qualify for Intrinsic Safety approval (when used installed properly with an approved DC power supply and I/S barrier).
The "live zero" is nice and convenient as a diagnostic for an open circuit fault, but it was not the main reason for 4-20mA; powering field instruments was the main reason.

Calculate the maximum pressure drop that can be allowed to occur across a control valve, so that we can prevent cavitation / flashing from occurring. Use the following formula: Δ P allow = Km (P1 – PvapourA) where, Δ P allow - the maximum allowable differential pressure for sizing purposes, or terminal pressure drop; Km- the valve recovery coefficient from the manufacturer’s catalogue; P1 - absolute inlet fluid pressure; PvapourA - absolute fluid vapour pressure at the inlet temperature; Use Atmospheric pressure = 101.3 kPa, P1 = 1200 kPa(g), PvapourA = 4 kPa, KM = 0.72
