I disagree. It's far easier to look over somebody's shoulder as they type in their password than it is to 3D print a copy of their head. I think most of the disdain for biometrics on phones is because Apple were the ones to popularise it, and tech people hate anything Apple does.

I've been hearing the exact same arguments against biometrics in every thread on the topic long before Apple even did biometrics.
