Biometrics are not being used as a password directly. They are typically used as an identifier to unlock the secrets store on the device and then retrieve an access token (which has previously been obtained via username/password autho

People see this as a waste, but that is how team relationships are formed. Jeff from accounts may be eating up time today talking about Batman, but 3 months down the line you'll be ringing him up saying "hey buddy, I need a favou
