I disagree as well. Until the arabic system is intentionally integrated for the Japanese to use for themselves, then it's not another writing system for them.

For example, Signs/Maps etc with English translations on them are meant to be read by foreigners, not for Japanese people to read the English. And the "Engrish" writing seen on products and stuff is because it's "cool" to have English writing on it and has nothing to do with the product itself. And you can tell this because if the English was actually intended to be read then most Japanese would think it was stupid because most of the time it doesn't even make sense.

And romaji is just a crutch to be able to read Japanese by foreigners who don't want to learn the writing.
