All that aside, I find the script flowing and incredibly elegant and beautiful, purely from an aesthetic point of view.

Can't deny that; same with the eastern languages. Latin script on the other hand appeals more to the engineering side of me, simpler 'instructions' so to speak. RISC vs CISC?

That script is used in several languages that are unrelated to Arabic though, like Urdu for example.
