That's quite the handicap from when you're fighting Ornstien and Smough.
They're using a Black Knight Halberd, which is potentially very powerful but also very heavy and requires considerable stat investment to use effectively. If you're going for a lightweight build at that point in the game, you'd have to do some serious level grinding for the halberd to be worth using and still have enough load left over for armor. You'd also have to know where all the crystal lizards are to have enough Twinkling Titanite to have it upgraded by then, or else know about the Ash Lake to go farming for them.
So rather than a conventional handicap, she's reached the point of familiarity with the game to be goofing around with highly specialized, harebrained builds, apparently while distracted. This woman has played a lot of Dark Souls.
