Seasonal timing
First frost sits near October 20 on an average year, and with 124 or so nights below freezing behind it, a shutoff that only closes part way keeps water moving when you want it stopped.

People also ask
Working it once or twice a year keeps it from seizing, and that is the main reason old gate valves fail when they're finally needed. If it feels gritty, stiff or weeps at the stem afterwards, it is telling you something. A plumber can swap a tired gate valve for a quarter-turn ball valve without much disruption.
The valve is not seating fully, which is common on gate valves that have sat untouched for decades. Water at the fixture with the main closed makes any repair downstream harder and messier. Replacing the valve is usually quicker and cheaper than working around it every time.
Then the valve and the pipe are one problem, not two, because working a valve on brittle service pipe can start a leak in the pipe itself. Pennsylvania has plenty of housing old enough for that to be a live question. A plumber will look at the pipe material first and plan the repair around it.
Age matters less than what happens when you turn it, but multi-decade gate valves on original service piping are the ones that fail most. If it will not close, will not reopen or drips afterwards, its working life is over. A quarter-turn replacement is a small job compared with the leak it prevents.
