As a rule of thumb (pun not intended), biometric data is a username, not a password.

Disagree. It is not a password for sure, but not even a username. biometrics are an indentifier.

username/password split an unique/secure identifier in a unique part and a (supposedly) secure part. biometrics are that pair together.
