Only recently countries extended that to include biometric data without any discernible benefit.
The core of the criticism is that it goes beyond having a government ID. Yes, Europe sadly also collects biometric data by now. They also cannot be trusted to handle such data.
Even while there is no central database of fingerprints, they created many instances where this data can be leaked. Again, there is no benefit to collect this data.
