I may be going out on a limb here, but I think that the vast majority of naval personnel are humans.... and humans make mistakes. That's not an excuse, but perhaps an explanation.
Like I said earlier a RADARs performance is only as good as the operator that tunes it. A difficulty also arises in busy shipping lanes especially at night. When trying to visually identify RADAR contacts. It's not easy and takes a bit of time.
