I could sign differently every time it wouldn’t matter and someone could sign the same signature I use.
So why do we need to sign on stuff?

Handwriting experts can’t determine personality from a signature like in the movies, but they are very good at telling if two pieces of writing are by the same person. If someone really wanted to know, they’d figure it out.
The signature is just further proof of agreement, and what you write doesn’t even matter. Before widespread literacy, people would just sign with the letter X, and it was valid because it still showed intent to complete the contract. And if you sign a credit card receipt “I do not agree to this purchase”, it is still valid because it was your intent to take whatever good or service the receipt was for.
