If an approach has a hold in lieu of a PT, but the chart says
"No PT", is the hold optional, or is it only available with ATC
authorization the way a PT would be in this situation?


ATC authorization is required.


What are some of the factors in ATC's decision on this request?

The only times I can think of that I'd request a hold would be to configure
my cockpit (which would hopefully have been done prior to entering the
approach segment) or to drop altitude if I'd been cleared inbound high for
whatever reason.
