I suspect few physics students would agree with you about the didactic value of LL. The audiences for the two types of books couldn't be more different.
They're definitely not the books you want for your primary learning source, but as a 2nd source pretty good for sure as long as you're comfortable filling in computation details between equations.
I learned Mechanics and Fluid Dynamics from Landau ;) It's a challenge to be sure. And it's dense. But actually the fact they tell you the ideas but not necessarily every detail sorta forces you to work things out in paper as you read, which I found very fruitful.
