Salomon Ultra x 5 vs Ultra x 360 height

Hi, I'd like to replace my salomon x ultra 3 with another Salomon hiking shoe and I'm hesitating between Ultra x 5 vs X Ultra x 360.

I see the stack is significantly higher on ultra 5 and I think this increases the risk of rolling the ankles due to higher leverage. I like ultra 5 sole that looks very gryppy, but I'm tempted to go for ultra 360 since it has lower stack . Even if ultra 5 has a more advanced chassis I wonder how could it compensate for the higher leverage.

What is your opinion? Thanks!

Those who have ultra 5, do you find it stable when going on a laterally sloped surface?
