The advantage of shift+S was that it remained S even in Arabic, so
it could be used for adding a new character to the keyboard. For example,
I use it for a dotted Kaf for old Malay (Jawi). It's nice to have at
least one unassigned key on the Arabic keyboard. But making the Linux
Arabic keyboard exactly the same as the MS keyboard seems like a good
idea. Anyone who doesn't like a particular keyboard can always edit the
keyboard file to suit his own preferences.
