Why do you overthink it? (The article also seems to mystify it a bit): Possibly put a paper on a drying work item and scribed it on paper, and it got imprinted through the paper.

Definitely not. Writing on clay is not something that happens on accident. It requires some effort to impress into the clay and to make it legible.
