I have had the center stand sink into asphalt, thus bringing the rear tire to touch ground, but it never fell. I never had a bike fall using a side stand, however, almost because the stand disappeared into the asphalt.Gearbox engaged. Always when I use my sidestand, which is rarely.(yes, I was surprised too)
As Kai Ju indicated in an explicit example, examine your environment and make a common sense judgement. If it doesn't feel right, be conservative and sometimes that means just using the side stand - and gearbox engaged to be extra anal.
