/r/TwoXChromosomes is not the nicest, most neutral place on the internet, but it's worth reading if you're a man. You get a sense of what it's like to navigate the world as a woman. It's a good way to build empathy for people in a very different social context, and as you can see here, it might impact how you build products around that context.

Wait: she DOES want them to leave the food "outside in the cold" (i.e., "no contact") and also DOESN'T want them leave the food "outside in the cold"? That would be a neat trick.

Yeah, there's a problem here, all right, but it doesn't lie where she's claiming it does.

When I ask for the no contact option, normally the drivers will ring the bell after they left the food at my door. I know the food arrived and I don't have to meet the driver. I have the impression that that's her expectation.
