If that is a legitimate concern, then don't use Touch ID or Face ID. By using those a person is intentionally choosing convenience over security. By even saving passwords in an account-shared fashion (be it Keychain, LastPass, or 1Password), you're giving up some security for convenience.

The latest iOS versions have also included a "five clicks on the power button" emergency option, which disables both TouchID and FaceID. It's not perfect, but if you're going into a questionable situation, it's a good way to avoid being coerced into using those to unlock your phone.
