I did my first game in '78 and over the years have only used a few stances. I even tried the inside knee on the ground for a while back in the mid 80's. I have been using the heel/toe squat until last year. At the advice of another seasoned ump, I tried the GD during a Mens Sunday wood bat game. Wow, not sure how I got along without it. I am stable, my head height is consistent and I can open the gate both ways with no problem. I never heard of neck problems with the scissors until reading this thread. The fault I found with it is opening the gate on the off side. I actually fell on my a$$ during a JC game. Not cool.
