Now, I could be wrong here, or there could be some sort of miscommunication, as I am by no means an expert. But I think it's a bit strong to say a 'signed language is never based on writing'. Because I'm fairly certain that at least one Japanese signed language is based on kanji, or at least they are both based on morphology. That's based on my own observation, which is why you should take it with a grain of salt.

"Japanese is represented by three writing systems." No. It's not. It's represented by four, are you unable to count? You mentioned all four in regards to Japanese not three pages ago.
"Romaji is used for the convenience of foreigners." No. NO. That is not true. That is so far from true it's astonishing. It's used for a plethora of reasons, only one of which the above is a very minor one.
