Straight in Approach vs Straight in Landing

In this lesson we look at the difference between a straight in approach and a straight in landing. Form the AIM:
STRAIGHT-IN APPROACH IFR− An instrument
approach wherein final approach is begun without
first having executed a procedure turn, not
necessarily completed with a straight-in landing or
made to straight-in landing minimums.
STRAIGHT-IN LANDING− A landing made on a
runway aligned within 30 of the final approach
course following completion of an instrument
approach
Please note the clarification at 00:30 into the video. Also per the AIM:
If proceeding to an IAF with a published
course reversal (procedure turn or hold-in-lieu of PT
pattern), except when cleared for a straight in approach
by ATC, the pilot must execute the procedure
turn/hold-in-lieu of PT, and complete the approach.
If cleared to an IAF/IF via a NoPT route, or
no procedure turn/hold-in-lieu of PT is published,
continue with the published approach

Regarding the VOR-A at Burley Muni (BYI) Approach Plate... The only Approach shown is a Circling Approach, so by definition there is no such thing as a Straight-In Approach for this Approach Plate. The two NoPT options merge to align at 094º followed by a 6º right turn after the IAF/FAF, which is 40º off from runway 060, and 80º off from Runway 020. A Circling Approach is still required to line up with either runway. If the published Procedure Turn is used to line up with 094º the end result is the same... a Circling Approach. So a Straight-In Approach (non-precision or precision) cannot apply here.
I'm not sure, but logically an Approach Plate that does have a Straight-In Approach published in the Minima could still require a Procedure Turn to line up with the runway if elevation became an issue on the 060 and 020 runway approach area. Looking forward to your response, from this confused X-Plane Pilot. :)

Hello there ! I have a question. For example in airdrome where I work we have an ILS DME Y app and usually we don't vector them to the final and what we do is that we just clear them for an ILS as they approach IF. so my question is do I have to clear them for straight in app? And another question is the minimum for straight in app going to be the same as for the ILS ?

Also if you are vectored to the final approach course you execute a "straight in approach".

perfect thank you

For anyone trying to find this information in the AIM, you will not find the definition. The definition is in the pilot/controller glossary section S
