As I understand it the question is not about the site forcing a change of orientation, but the user forcing a change. I'm working on the assumption that the site does load, initially, in both orientations. Under benefits, the more detailed information, two examples are given of benefits. One is that the user lacks the physical ability to change the orientation, and the other is that they find font sizes easier to cope with in landscape. In the first case there is no possibility of the user trying to force a change. I guess you could suggest that in the second, the user entered the site in portrait and decided they had to go to landscape to be able to read it, but I'd argue that someone in that situation would always try to use landscape.
