Oh yeah, that is an arc, I missed that when I looked.  It's been an awful long time since I've done this one.  It has a charted angle as well but just being a visual, I'm not sure if that's coded as a GP leg or not.  Either way, fun to see other people digging into this stuff!

For RNP approaches just go to IAN mode.    Oh wait, you are talking about the 777.   IAN mode not an option 😄

Max 3 degree path in IAN right?

IAN mode wouldn't fly these types of approaches at all.  It can't handle the steep glidepath, it can't handle RF segments (it almost requires straight in approaches in fact) etc.  There's reasons most airlines don't use IAN - they'd need to use LNAV / VNAV for more complex procedures anyway, and if you train an LNAV / VNAV profile anyway, you might as well just use that for all RNAVs (really, most non-precisions of any type.)
