True. But unlike a password, biometrics often also act as a second factor in that they authorize a particular device and can’t easily be done remotely. Even if my fingerprints were compromised, I’d probably continue using biometrics instead of or in addition to a password. I’m a fan of Yubikey with biometrics, for example, because it’s an extra layer of security. Just don’t lose a finger or hand or you’ll never easily authenticate again…
