Hi - I am in Canada (PR holder), have approved I-140. Sent docs for H1B stamping to Ottawa via dropbox as instructed by the system.
I know that I have to wait for the consulate decision but I am worried that they might call me for in-person interview, because my last H1B expired in Mar’2017 (i.e. more than 5 years ago) where with approved petition I was in USA till Jan’2019.
Question is: Though in Canada, system doesn’t ask whether your last US visa expired within 48 months or not during as dropbox selection criteria but as that is the USCIS criteria for dropbox eligibility, so any idea whether due to this reason ONLY I might be asked for in-person interview?
or, anyone with last h1b expired more than 48 months got stamped via dropbox in Canada?

We cant know who or why interview will be mandatory for some dropbox applicants. Just send the documents and see what happens.
Dropbox criteria is not exactly universal as per my understanding. So it may be different from Canada and India and other countries. So we can just only go with the website of that local country and go with that.
I dont know what you are trying to research but these things are not in our control or we cant be prepared ahead in preventing.
