to be fair if you are only taking a wheel off at a time via a trolley jack and not putting your head under the car then a axle stand is overkill
thing is a trolley jack will work or it wont
now for my reason for saying this from experience
you put the wheel on drop the jack and the axle stand does untold damage because you forgot you put it under the suspension arm etc and it cocked over and split the sump etc etc etc
not happened to me but i have forgotten ive also used an axle stand before now when i wouldnt normally use one for a simple wheel off situation so the scenario stands
