You can use guided access to restrict access outside of the app. Here in Colorado, they just scan the barcode on the back and pull up the info on their own device.

Only maybe 1/10 people even know about guided access. It’s also time consuming to setup.

Apple could add an API to wrap apps in guided access automatically … or lock the device on app exit. But that’s not going to happen because they want wallet apps to go though their Apple Wallet APIs

You could, but in practice essentially no one will do this.
"in practice" everyone has faceid/touchid enabled, which means you can be compelled to unlock your phone, making this point moot to begin with.
