I know the post office tries to use judgement base partly on the carrier's memory of the customers desire. Of course the PO visits each house every day; and it's usually the same person 5 out of 6 days, and the 6-day substitute is also a regular for that route. They don't have any database to record this information and make it available to the carrier - quite important when there is a non-regular substitute. If there is a spot on the porch that isn't visible they are more likely to leave it than if it is visible from the street.
