Depends on your posture. Yeah though I'd say it makes it more complicated. Goes without saying though that anything can be bad with bad form.

Would not do seated with no back rest unless it was really light weight. I do seated at 80 and 90deg and outdoors standing with weight belt on. Standing is good sometimes in my opinion because you can use a little leg drive to force reps if you want.

Both and more.
In different blocks/phases.
Seated db Ohp (no back rest) is great...
Seated db high incline (with back rest) what People PRETEND is a legit shoulder press, when it's not... is also great..
Neither are a injury risk..Bench for pecs crew

Standing is just plain more natural. Who lifts things above their head while sitting in every day life?

Anyone with any sort of back issues should be seated with back support.

I did standing military BB with my weight belt on for lower back support outside yesterday. I'm switching to these over my 80 and 90 degree bench routine. Forgot how great heavy BB standing felt.
