Default Lead Radial Question

This question concerns the ILS or LOC RWY 36R approach into Huntsville (AL)
International Airport (KHSV).

Just to the left of the HIL pattern, there is a lead radial RQZ LR-200
shown. I assume this is for use by aircraft flying the feeder route from
DCU on R-149. But why is it needed? I thought LRs were required for turns
of more than 90 degrees. The HIL is required for arrival on the feeder, and
the feeder route makes a perfect teardrop entry into the hold, so no turn is
required after crossing ENIKY.

So why the LR?
