> Gloves aren't necessary here
Gloves are used in more scenarios than just cold weather, motorcycle gloves for one example.
Wearing motorcycle gloves would make it impossible to touch anything on your screen anyway?
Most gloves accumulate enough dirt over time for touch to start awkwardly working. Some newer ones have a layer applied to the index finger to make it work.
Gloves are not the big problem, my experience is that FaceID is useless when motorcycling because of the helmet.

We are talking about phones without FaceID here. This article and thread are referencing the iPhone SE.

Seems to work fine for me when opening the visor. Do you mean with it closed or open it’s not working for you?
I wear gloves when I ride my bicycle. Unlocking it is necessary to access certain functions that you can invoke with Siri. Even without Siri, most gloves these days are designed to work with capacitive touch.
You're right. Anyway, I don't work or do anything that calls for gloves — haven't use them in… I don't know, 20+ years?

Gloves aren't necessary here :) I live in the (allegedly) Brazil's coldest state capital, Curitiba, and you can get through winter here without them.
