A signature is not necessarily always readable. But it should give the impression that nevertheless it represents the writer's ability to base on letters and his skill to write. That is why the signatures of Johnson or Bush do not compare to three crosses or a spiral cable. If it does not, the question if the signing person actually could even write - or read - only is logical.

5 year old kids play-act as if they already could write, too, and produce some random scribblings, saying that now they "signed" it or "wrote" it down. That means nothing.

I would ask the same question if somebody signs a document by making three dots in a line, or painting a square or a triangle.
