I always apply the recorded delivery sticker myself for this very reason.
I've seen too many applied in such a haphazard manner by post office staff
that they might fall off if someone sneezed at the wrong moment.
Recorded is very unreliable. I have had many items delivered and not been
signed for. Similarly, I have had multiple recorded items delivered to me
which I have not had to sign for.
