I think pedal choice plays a big role, too.
Just to, you know, muddy the waters a bit.
I do find mods can sound much better in front though.
I prefer them post gain, so after pedals in the front or in the loop for amp drive.
If I'm using a choice of amp or pedal dirt they go in the loop.

I agree
everything always sounds better into the front for me
Having said that, I never play using loads of (pre)amp OD
I've recently been playing chorus-type big power chords and inversions with a single fast repeat on the delay, and it's making it sound huge. In front, it just sounds muddy.
I go through phases of using the loop and not. I always want my amps to have one, but sometimes the setting up and extra cables running across the stage* is a pain so I just set the amp clean and use my drive pedals with delay and reverb at the end of the chain
*rarely an actual stage of course, normally a corner of a pub with the pool table pushed out the way!
