For on off duty, if the seals are in the flow path it could cause premature sela failure.
I doubt if any supplier will give guidance on this as its very hard to quantify.
You'll have to look at the inherent flow paths of each design to see what is best.
I know that BP did an erosive study on control valves in the past and graded valve brands or else talk to the valve manufacturers that ar esupplying to the upstream (untreated) hydrocarbon market.
In Holland a lot of these upstream valves are from Mokveld
