I don't like any form of kickstand because it leaves a bike vulnerable to being knocked over by the wind, kids, dogs, or just people bumping into it. I always cable lock my bike to something, anything, partly to keep it from falling over onto the ground when bumped.
Just ONCE i leaned my bike securely against a building without locking it to something, and wouldn't you know a big gust of wind came out of nowhere and sent my bike crashing to the ground....scratched up my bar end shifters. If my bike is cable to a railing or tree or something, it CAN'T fall over to the ground. Just my own preference.
