There could be a reason, yet: \documentclass. From other posts,
I think what Vafa wants is to write the whole document using the
Arabic script, including macro names. That's sensible, because
mixing LtoR markup with RtoL text can be a mess and this can be
only accomplished (to some extent) with a format.
