It's something I've considered for a long time. Since the begining, it was said that Arima has "parental love" for Sasaki, and if that's true, he's probably the only person (known) in the world that Arima considers "family", or something close to it. Despite having a small circle of friends, he doesn't seem to connect with anybody in particular, so Sasaki can become an inadvertant weakness.

Unlike most investigators who have close friends and relatives, the saving grace of Arima being alone is that the people around him can't be used as a threat by his enemies since he's not close enough to anyone.

Sasaki might change that and since Aogiri seems to be very aware of him, it's a scary thought.
