Bad F4i! time for your beating!!
I've been using a padded stands for over a year for any and all uses including indoor storage during winter. (in my kitchen, where drunks commonly sit on it and make vroom vrooom sounds, all on the stands) Never had a single "slip"

You can easily drill n tap holes in the swingarm for spools. Will not harm the integrity or strength of it. Just make sure to put the holes so they dont interfere with getting the rear axle out. I had mine just fwd of the axle bolt and towards the bottom of the swingarms. Or just do the 600RR swingarm swap lol.
And I've used both the pad n spools. Spools win hands down!!!

spools are far better than pads, especially if you do a lot of work on your bike. i have had a few slips on my bike and other bikes with pads, its just so much more secure on the spools.
there is another option, the only downside is you have to use a padded stand when you need to remove your wheel/axle:
