One of the articles we've been reading on my course said that writing is to record the primary form of any language: speech (or sign).I don't see why one form of arbitrary symbols to provide a record of a language (English with the Roman alphabet) is any more confusing than another (written ASL in the form of SignWriting or Si5s). If you wanted to convey the signer's mood or intent beyond what was clear from the context of the conversation, you could express that with descriptions just as you would when writing down a spoken English conversation.
