Ouch! Slam, dunk, 2 points.
Now seriously, an arp isn't as easy to play as you think. Try using an arp with 'harmonically complex' songs. I've been working on a song lately, in which I use a Fm7 - Em7+5 progression. And I was using an arp to play that progression. It was difficult to find an interesting tune to sing with that arp line.
As someone else said, it can also make other musicians think rythmically differently.
And how about the variations you can get with the sound? Try using a modular synth and you'll see what I mean. Try the VAZ modular demo, to be found at http://www.software-technology.com/downform.htm. That is if you have a PC.
