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.
