Not at all in my experience, in which a dropout mounted Greenfield was much more stable than either kind of bb-area mounted stand, single legged or double legged. IME, which is extensive, the dropout mount was most stable, the double legged Pletscher and VO bb mount stands next, and the single leg bb area stand the least stable. This from years of loading rear panniers asymmetrically and heavily with each type of stand.
I hear that there is a very wide double legger; in fact, saw it online recently; perhaps that's better than a dropout mount stand; but IME again, not the VO or the Pletscher.
