> Passwords are terrible with many weaknesses.
One being, when you're entering them on a phone in public, someone can watch you type them. This makes them easier to clone than biometrics.

You can't change biometrics and that's why they're definitely worse. They might be acceptable as one of many factors, but they're absolutely the worst idea for a primary.
