There seem to be three kind of people regarding stands and arrows: the ones who are instantly killed like the old man in part 5; the ones who get a stand but can't control it and end up dying like Holy... or Masazo Kinoto (a better example here since he was stabbed by the arrow) and the ones who become able to develop and control a stand.

Regarding the question, it says "too weak willed to have a stand", having one doesn't imply controlling it > You'd instantly die.
