where on earth did they get that information?
Everyone learns 1607 through required education (middle school)
If they attend through senior high school it's 2136.
University educated people know around 3000. And for really super duper smart and driven people, it's 6355 to pass the kanji examination at the highest level.
So...where'd they get 1850??

Trigger alert!
"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.
