Apr 11, 2013 at 16:17 comment added Tom Gewecke @Noah The OS decides on the basis of the attached hardware whether you need a layout for JIS keyboard type. Every Latin keyboard layout has a distinct JIS version. The option in Kotoeri preferences is needed primarily so that people who use AZERTY or QWERTZ layouts don't have to switch to QWERTY when typing Japanese.

Apr 11, 2013 at 7:09 comment added Noah Yes, but how does Mac OS decide what layout you need? If it the OS could reliably do so automatically, you wouldn't need the "Romaji Keyboard Layout" option in the first place.
