But since that extra initial approach segment is there, it seems more cluttered; I would definitely treat the 2200 as a minimum for the teardrop procedure until established inbound, and if I was flying from the IAF "TBG" I would treat the altitude as minimum until established AND at TBG 8 DME.

The above post is probably the most conservative and safest way to read this procedure... My 2 cents...
I can't download the chart.

Nonetheless, you are stating "the least cost of being wrong" principle. That principle tends to save lives, especially in third world instrument procedures.
