I was not trying to making out that one type of stand was safer than the other. I just thought it was highly unlikely that the pin type would fail if the pin sheered as it would have to fail on both sides of the pin hole to collapse. If you don't believe me get a pin type stand and put the pin in half way (only through one side) and try and collapse it. You cant. I don't recommend going underneath with one like that but it is reassuring that they are hard to fully fail.
