It’s easier to steal, copy, or alternatively subpoena a fingerprint.
For most people, the only security they really need is against people either stealing devices or accessing them without permission. In those cases, biometrics (if implemented properly) and passwords are roughly equivalent.
This is why we have duress passwords.
