That's because it works for you. Biometrics is a great idea when it works, not so great (and expensive) when it doesn't. My cousin had TouchID fail on her twice while on vacations. Our roofer last year had his fail him as well and it caused some costly problems due to time sensitive deliveries. I just don't think it's a rare event. I personally don't have the experience with it, but I have trouble solving technical problems (short term memory issues) and since it is a mere convenience, it's not something I want to add to my load of stuff. When I eventually do get an iPhone (being that smartphones are pretty much supplanting flip phones), it's on my list of things to learn more about. I do know you have the option to turn it off on the iPhone.
