I agree in theory, but yet I have an iPhone, and Apple is managing my biometrics. I do not have Clear, or TSA preCheck, etc. but still my biometrics are in the US database.

So, in practice, I am not sure if that is truly a non-starter for "normies" and even some "techies". I already gave up on my face biometrics living in US.

Your biometrics are in the secure enclave of your specific phone. Apple doesn't have them in a database.

They do have ways to access to them, which is the same thing in my book.

I don't think this shows that at all?

How else can you patch an exploit if you don't try it first? The first step in reverse engineering malware is to try the exploit in a controlled environment.
