You are very forgiving. It belongs in Format-> page.
NOT Insert->page breaks->More Breaks->manual breaks->Page Style.
The reason it's there is because in order to change the page format
you have to start a new page. And it's not really there anyway. The
actual landscape setting is part of the style. Format->Page modifies
the page settings for the currently active style. If you switch to
the "Landscape" style, then Format->Page will show that you are in
landscape. I guess you have to understand that LO operates at a
higher level than just basic typing. You can do that, but you
shouldn't, at least if you're writing something more than just a
really basic memo. If you use styles properly, then you can make
global layout and formatting changes easily.
True. And since when do I need to be a rocket scientist to figure out.
That is the issue. It should be in page format,
period. I should not have to learn" what is under the hood to
be able to use the thing.
It's very clear in the documentation. A quick search for "landscape"
gave me:

Oh and on what planet is the orientation of the page
a "paragraph" format?
Are you referring to LO or something else? In LO, the page orientation
is in the page format right where it should be.
