Exactly. For the longest time, handwriting analysis was considered not much better than phrenology when an analyst was asked to say a person wrote a particular line of text.

While handwriting analysis is a tool, no investigator will use the results of an analysis as their sole evidence. Mostly, handwriting analysis is used to authenticate antique documents/historical documents prior to sale or auction or to authenticate an autograph.

Now, if an investigator has a note where forensic evidence can be gathered, fiber, palm prints, fingerprints, ink matching, typewriter keys (more akin to the science of identifying toolmarks) they jump on it.
