I'd assume space and practicality or one of those butterfly or ball valves that should be in a horizontal position? I could be wrong though, but I'm interested in what the others have to say on this matter

Improper horizontal positioning of the EIV stem could lead to inaccurate flow readings or valve malfunctions, so ensuring correct alignment is crucial for system reliability and safety

Keeping the EIV stem horizontal helps stopp water or dirt from getting in and causing rust or sticking. It also makes the valve work more smoothly and last longer, especially outdoors.

Exactly, horizontal stem orientation protects internals and keeps operation smooth, especially in exposed setups.
