Wouldn't there be some occasions when vectors to final would remove the
need for the course reversal that would be required by a clearance to
OTMEE?


Yup, that one would. There is something special about vectoring to final on
GPS approaches, though. Unlike localizers or VOR radials, a GPS FAC has a
definite "end". The course does not extend beyond what's charted so there's
nothing to intercept.
