This does seem like an unreasonable situation to me. If the o/s detects tampering with the fingerprint scanner, the sensible thing to do would be to fall back to making the user enter the PIN, just as you have to do when you first switch the phone on following a reboot, for example.

While I agree with you, in the corporate world, the security types prefer to render a device unusable if it is being compromised. I would imagine that some manager went with "best practices" rather than common sense.
