An off the wall case where aspect ratio could be bothersome if I were to read something in landscape mode with the text the same size as it was in portrait mode thus making the lines very long. Not that I would ever do that.

The problem with overly long lines was one of the first things I learned when typesetting with TeX on 8.5 x 11 inch paper (way back in the 1980s); giving the page generous margins fixed that problem. At first it looked strange to me because the typical convention back then among computer people was to use half inch or whatever margins.
