One reason: they are not radials. They are courses. The 214° course to SUXUE doesn't even track a FAK radial (it's technically 3° off the 031 radial). And the 159° course tracks the localizer inbound.
WAG as to why the dogleg was written up that way? Too much writing already in that area of the chart.
Anyone have the Jepp chart? Comparing the way the FAA and Jepp handle the same information is usually instructive.
