The question of whether fingerprints obtained this way are good enough to fool TouchId is still unanswered.
If it were this easy, why do the hacks use carefully made fingerprints from clean polished glass?
What matters is not whether one pristine fingerprint can fool TouchID (note that we don't know how many failed attempts were made), but what percentage of fingerprints found in the wild can fool it.
