I finally have a theory on how Red Garland has a Requiem form without a Stand Arrow:

One part of the theory has to do with the User: Specifically, Red Garland's User is noted to have a lot of self control along with a loner attitude. The second part is the fact that Red Garland is said to be stronger tha Star Platnium. The second part could also be related to how Dio said that Star Platnium where the same kind of Stand and thus would be equal in a lot of ways. Red Garland's attributes that seem to be higher than Star Platnium is it's Power and Developmental potential. By being lesser in speed, precision, range and durability, the Stand draws on more power and utlizes it in two ways. The power to simply destroy, the power to trigger the fight or flight instinct through sheer intimidation (Thus the many status aliments). The3 second application would also fit with the User who would use this to mnake people leave them alone.

This all factors into why and how Red Garland can do this. Because it blost so much speed, precision, durability andrange, all that got poured into Developmental Potential to the point that it gained an ability that is stronger than The World or Star Platnium: Requiem. As I have seen to, Requiem stands seem to take an aspect of the STand or their user to an extreme: Chariot Requiem takes Polaneff's drive to do what is right and keep the arrow out of Diavalo's ahnds that Chariot Requiem became the Ultimate defense, GER took Giorno's drive to stop Diavalo and become number one that his Stand took both it's power over life and his drive to it's extreme as the ultimate versatility. Red Garland takes the intimidation of it;s opponent's and it's power to it's logical extreme, striking the opponent so hard and intimidating them so much it becomes a mind over matter situation where they become weaker in every sense and they are disabled in every sense, wanting to both fight and flee. But unlike Ponaleff who isd naturally emotional and Giorino who has inherited teh Joestar tendency to be hot blooded, the User fo red Garland would have the control to take full control over a Requiem stand which eitehr goes on a rapage (Chariot) or becomes sentient (Gold Experience.)

To me, that is why Red Garland can evolvfe on it's own.
