The comment by hckydv7 about clerks and their interpretation seems to be the most plausible.Was that mine?

RE: USPS is insane, or at least confused
that is correct ..... even though it's a PWE it is still considered a "package"

If I can't do the postage online I don't bother any more, because one of the tellers at my local post office is super strict about these things.

One more thing I see-- the one in the PWE has a customs form on it. Does the other? If a customs form is put on it and you handed it to a clerk they have to send it as a package.
