Seems likes it there just to let a pilot that doesn't have DME know that
they haven't yet passed the localizer.
The way the regulation is worded, it's required only for an Initial
segment when the initial course and intermediate course differ by more
than 90 degrees, so it's not technically needed for this feeder. There's
nothing to prevent adding it, and if you don't have DME, it gives you a
good idea when you're about to reach the LOC intersection.
The actual wording can be found in FAAO 8260.3 para 232

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?
