They claim physical access for "hacking" is required, but that is not true. As long as you have a root access on a device you can do anything from anywhere. I don't see how this replaces or improves passwords from this perspective. Yes it is easier for the user, since they don't have to remember the password, but everything else stays the same.

As Raymond Chen likes to say, "it rather involved being on the other side of this airtight hatchway." Once you have root, yes, you have compromised the machine.

But if it is a biometric password then you compromised all machines of a user.
