Easiest to give an example. There is a restaurant I frequent in a large mall parking lot. There is an exit in a section of the parking lot that is always empty. After I eat and I want to leave, head towards that section of parking lot. One well timed pulse can get me down the hill and out of the parking lot and too the light around the corner. Sometimes when I make it down the hill to the exit the traffic is such that I don't have to perform one orbit in order to let traffic clear so I can make my exit.
In that case orbit is good. If I'm lucky I don't have to orbit and I can take the exit, go to the light and make the corner (if green). If I'm not lucky I have to orbit waiting for traffic to clear at the end of the hill so I can exit. The exit is blind so I never know till I'm at the bottom of the hill if there is traffic or not. Orbit is the only answer.
Now I will concede that orbit on the way into a parking lot is a numbers game. But on the way out, it can make sense.
