I suspect this (and a lot of the issues often associated with deliveries) are because drivers are pressured into making as many deliveries as possible, so saving 30 seconds per delivery really adds up over a day.

Yeah, it's this. all the Amazon logistics guys drive around like lunatics in my area and my company's daily DPD collection driver says they are penalized for bringing a package back so they absolutely have to find somewhere to leave it. Whats annoying is all of the big UK delivery companies offer a live tracking feature now and a one-hour delivery window with interactive SMS systems to manage delaying delivery etc. Amazon offers nothing, it's like going back 10 years as the parcel will arrive sometime between 8am and 8pm
