I don't think your food is getting cold if you're getting it in a timely fashion. Perhaps you're sensitive to food temp, and if so maybe you should choose a different service to get food delivered or go out to eat. App delivery people don't have the same level of scrutiny or responsibility and the service level has degraded quite a bit since they've been introduced. I avoid them if I can.
You're right about the danger though. I would imagine all of the danger of a delivery transaction is toward the delivery person and not the receiver. As a former delivery guy in my youth, I did not have time to commit crimes even if I wanted to, nor would I have gotten away with it.

Thank you. I agree about the safety, which is why I'm upset by the unsubstantiated claim.
When I wait in the lobby for my food to arrive, it gets to me considerably warmer than when I wait for the call from downstairs and then first get in the elevator to come down.
Some food items such as very thin crust pizza are especially sensitive and drop pretty rapidly in temperature when left at the front desk for even a couple of minutes, especially with a cold winter breeze every time the door opens.
It's interesting that you say that about the delivery services. I have noticed that they are not as good at keeping the food warm as the restaurant employees used to be.
