The globe valve consists of a plug on a stem that moves onto a seat, which can lead to blockages forming in cavities in the valve body. Ball, butterfly, and pinch valves have straight-through flow paths that are less prone to blockages developing. References include books on control valves and process control instrumentation from 2005 that discuss valve body designs.
