Because PSA is, as usual, dead wrong (And their examiner is simply not very bright.)
Read the document, which is a bill of lading. It clearly states that it is signed by th ship's master, James Scott. So, that is Scott's signature at the botttom. But, looking at the signature, and comparing with the rest of the writing, we see the entire document was written by the signer. James Scott.
