How important is head-to-toe (tall aspect ratio) video on a doorbell?

Reviewer consensus

Head-to-toe — a taller 1:1 or 4:3 field of view — matters most if packages are routinely left at the base of your door. A standard 16:9 doorbell crops out the porch floor, while head-to-toe captures the full person plus any package on the ground. Reviewers single out the Ring Wired Doorbell Plus and Arlo's head-to-toe framing as the practical reason to choose those over flatter wide-angle competitors.
