Yup: A magically created attack will strike before you can leave the province on foot.

Hordes wouldn't work because they'd sit in the castle and drink beer, but if the enemy army is slaughtered by Ghost Riders and you are castled, you do not need to send anyone to mop-up: Instead of becoming an independent province that you must send a guy to reclaim, who might then get killed, and then rebuild your temple, the enemy army simply dies and the province instantly reverts back to you.

There's also the benefit that you can build a lab in the province, which the enemy cannot make use of immediately upon seizing the province, and thus he cannot gateway large numbers of reinforcing troops in, nor teleport out.
