There have been games here where the bodyguard blocked without knowing it, but they are pretty rare. It feels like a clunky mechanism to do it that way, and if I recall correctly, I believe it was set up that the "wolf" would see the bodyguard there and decide to not attack. So it was not as much a block as it was simply prevention.
In those cases, I would guess that the GM did it that way to try to add another villager role without it being too powerful. So they further watered down the bodyguard role to try to keep an overall game balance.
