imo, I think Arima's more the type of person to differentiate between "target" and "non target" regardless of the species. It's just that he happens to be Ghoul Investigator, so ghouls are the default enemy.

Then there's the issue of who Arima's fighting in particular; he's been acting strangely this whole arc. Despite his surface behavior, Arima's been strangely persuasive in his own brutal way. I don't think he sees Kaneki as "just a ghoul".
