Great observation. It’s why TSA is moving to facial biometrics. Less need for ID and suboptimal human evaluation of person->ID.

This is a great security measure. Tho it's pretty privacy invasive in some aspects, but otherwise it's good.

When I traveled to Saudi Arabia a few years ago they took my fingerprints at customs. When exiting the country, I didn't give them my passport - they just scanned my thumbs and asked me to confirm my name.
