No one is born to be passionate about something--Something HAS to click. Learning romaji is not something that hinders someone from achieving an end result. Like I said, not everyone learns the same way. While it may be traditional to learn the kanas first, it does not mean it's the only way. There's no study saying that learning a language through romanized lettering causes someone to never learn that language. Some people will prefer to use romaji in the beginning and some will immediately learn the kanas. Like I said on numerous occasions, this is just for the beginning.

here's a rough example:

You can read a lot of books on ancient languages and most of the books will be "user friendly". Unless it's extremely specialized, the book will always have the romanized system instead of the original alphabet. Is this holding hands? I think it's getting that person to be interested to learn the original alphabet fully.

I read a book on Egyptian hieroglyphics and thought it was very interesting. If the book used just hieroglyphs to talk about Egyptian etymology I would be very turned off by the fact that I can't understand it.

What I'm trying to say is that I am trying to get the reader interested in learning Japanese, and I am not trying to cram their heads with information which will ultimately benefit the user or have them lose interest.

I can create a website that is solely for tried and hardened scholars, or I can create a website for everyone.
