Just because one IAP at an airport doesn't have an IAF, doesn't mean all the IAPs at that place will lack IAFs. When radar vectoring is used for say 95% of the time, it doesn't make sense to publish 10 approaches with routes that will never be flown, if it is quite sufficient with 1 or 2 full procedures to be flown in case of RT failure.
