the arbiter was there to expand the storyline, which he did, GREATLY
the arbiter showed the covenant perspective and workings, without him they couldnt really have started the covenant civil war as you would know absoloutely nothing about it
the arbiter was integral to the story and, if bungie decide to allow you to play as an elite its either very important to the storyline or a good idea, i think it was both
the arbiter was great
