I don't see that said, only that it could be spot re-finished to replace the finish someone stupidly removed.
But a name is not "provenance" unless connected to or supported by some other information, IMO.
Spot rust blue can be done.
I agree that the name looks as done by period stamping.
I'd leave it alone, and ponder the spot touch up depending on how it looked when in my hands.
