It's hard to believe that an instrument rated pilot got lost and

Well...no, not really. Rather: the IA rating isn't really relevant. If
anything, taking the rating actually reduced my pilotage skill for a while.
But not by so much that I'd be confused about Manhattan Island.

And he wasn't lost when he circled the statue. I'm not sure that this is
relevant, mind you. But he did find the statue. So...was he really
"lost"? Or did he misread the TAC?
