That works until the day you get charged with robbery because the lousy FR system matched your face with a fuzzy picture of a robber in another state. Trading freedom of other people for personal gain (feeling of safety) is IMHO a much bigger crime than robbery.
Edit. Wrong people spent life behind bars for crimes they didn't commit. With FR it's just going to be more often. Your weak "but this is not me" will be countered by prosecutor's "all criminals say this and this certified FR system is more reliable than humans, your honor, I ask for 10 years for this gentleman" and the strong incentive to close the case paired with political desire to not disprove belief in FR will convince the judge to make the right decision. Important people will be exempt from FR, obviously.
