That's somehow puzzling given that even if I know the cursive of my generation (which, even then differed by country, region, and even school), the cursive of the past is pretty much different from it.
My knowledge of cursive doesn't guarantee being able to read a Spanish church document, written in cursive, from the 1700's. Historians and related professionals train on how to read these kinds of cursive as needed.
