Unfortunately, the Roman alphabet does not provide a similar
level of shape variation as Arabic.
Each Arabic letter has at most four forms. Some have two, some have one.
Each Latin letter has 2 cases; combine with Roman/Italic script
and you have indeed a full four forms for _every_ Latin letter.
I think the difference between "A" and "a" or "G" and "g" is as
extreme as anything you'll find in Arabic.
Whether this is a *good* thing is another matter entirely.
