There is a standardisation process with multiple stakeholders. Some stakeholders want hardware devices that are secure even if the OS has been completely compromised - even if they have to trade off usability and price to achieve it. Other stakeholders think iPhone biometrics are pretty great, and if you've logged in with full credentials and indicated indicate the phone is trusted, going forward the combination of recognised phone + biometrics is good enough, even if it doesn't secure against a compromised OS. And in a spirit of standardisation and vendor independence, if iphone face recognition is good enough, why shouldn't the face recognition on a phone from Honest Abraham's Used Cars And Android Phones also be good enough? It is the latter group of stakeholders that are currently ascendant.
