So you mean we can use these two expressions whenever we like?
No matter in what kind of context?
Sentences from one version of the textbooks of senior high school in Taiwan:
-->My brother was told to stay home last night, but he went to the movies.
-->My brother should have stayed
at home last night.
The word "
at" in the second sentence is regarded as a wrong expression and is deleted in the revised version.
From your point of view, "stay at home" and "stay home" have no difference.
Thus, I can infer that the revision is not necessary.
Either expression is acceptable.
Is this what you mean?
No usage preference in a certain context for either expression?
Thanks for your patience.
