I know in sin approximations it is good to use range reduction, and
then an identity to expand the value back out, this is because on a
smaller range sin is more linear so easier to approximate. Could this
method have came about by about by range reduction to approximate the
complex exponential?

Ok, so what I'm really asking is why did someone (Tustin?) decide to
make this substitution?
exp (sT) = exp (sT/2) / exp (-sT/2)
which can be written:
exp (sT/2 - (-sT/2))
