Yes other games allow to rotate from Landscape to Landscape even if rotation is locked.
Example when that can be useful for user (how I play other games all the time) - if you play you game on one landscape and have to plug in charger that is on the other side of the phone it's very convenient to be able to rotate phone and continue playing.
When after upgrading unity (to 2020.3.43f) this feature disappeared from our game we were very disappointed.

Usually other games do rotate even when the device's orientation setting is locked (I can confirm that's the case on my phone). That said, there should be an option in Unity to choose if we want to override that setting.

When the android orientation lock setting of your phone is locked and you cannot rotate the screen.
If your phone's orientation setting is unlocked and you rotate your device, the screen will rotate.
