People who still not have understood "What you are" (fingerprints / faces) "What you have" (a token/card) "What you know" (a password) are different things, that you should adds up for improved security, not trade one for the other

Strictly speaking, there's only a pair of gardening shears between "what you are" and "what you have".

And given that "police" have access to your fingerprint and your token/card then the only thing protecting you from self incrimination is your password ! http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/05/iphone-fingerprint-search-warrant/480861/ http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/05/iphone...

  The police can subpoena your bank and obtain your finically information with out knowing your password.

    People aren't worried about the bank records, they are worried about the biometrics. Never mind the first security breach and leaked data.

If people tend to write down their passwords, isn't a password closer to being "what you have"?

  both or either, depending

Biometrics are either just "what you know" or "what you have", depending if the sensor is trusted.
