I would think at 90 degrees or higher the tires would be off the ground.

Would point out that r1's, zx10's and all those other "cool street bikes" win the most races at any level of competition around the world and that they all have tilt sensors fitted but if you are a Ducati taliban its not gonna change your mind
Believe me if your IMU can reliably determine what amount of brake pressure to allow for a given bank angle it will not have an issue determining when to reliably cut the engine... Even if you are Marc Marquez you do not recover from a 90 degrees lean angle. For visual reference here is what 90 degrees looks like:

Did you do one of your interviews...
if you are that desperate to get one, speak to Mick Boesman at Bikesport developments...
Weve all been there, Its just resting before it gets up,
On a practical note no engine is going to seize idling on its side for a short time, or mine never has and Ive had about 6 off's on Ducatis including grinding a hole in the clutch cover and dumping a load of oil before turning it off.

think again
Oooof... Hoping for the best. Have you turned the engine over yet?
Technically, Warner employed both normal AND dry sumps and extensive baffle systems to keep oil where it needs to be. Though I'm not an expert, these engines are so interesting to learn about.
V4 seems to have a pretty extensive oil baffle system hence why it takes so long to drain the oil properly and refill. Probably could stand to be on its side for 30 sec at idle and still be in good shape. Unless, the engine has already be turned over and you've encountered. But again, these are just guesses.
