IIRC, the forensic handwriting examiner, Sue Iremonger, who concluded that the diary handwriting did not match James Maybrick's will [although she saw a similarity between Michael Maybrick's handwriting and the will], was also given samples of the Barretts' handwriting for comparison purposes, way back in the early 1990s. If she noticed any similarities between Anne's and the diary, she didn't think to mention it. Nor did she voice any suspicions that Anne's sample was not in her natural handwriting, or that she could have penned the diary using a disguised hand. She would have been on the lookout for any such indications, for obvious reasons.
It seems that Lord O is claiming to know more about forensic handwriting examination than the professionals in that field. If only his woeful ignorance on the subject of how to win friends and influence people didn't get in the way, he might attract a few more believers in 'La Plume de Ma Graham' than his current crop of earwigs with learning 'differences'.
