eli5 what was the point of the skull and bones pirate flag? why would you give away that you are a pirate?

If I’m a truck driver and you wanna rob me, I will gladly give away anything in my truck to ensure my safety. I could care less about losing Walmart’s cargo.
Same way with these merchant ships. They usually don’t own the cargo. They’re just the delivery team.
Everybody ends up better if you’re able to let the ship know what the situation is and they can cooperate without violence.
