   I'm making a philosophical point, which is who needs marketing gimmicks?   
      
   I've never been 'burgled' but if I was, my passwords are in KeepassXC, and   
   my financial data is in veracrypt containers, so all they get are my pics.   
      
   Which is the key point, really...   
      
   We don't *need* silly marketing security (e.g., biometric gimmicks) for a   
   home computer as long as we don't live in the slums... :)   
      
   If we live in the slums, then by all means, we need those silly marketing   
   gimmicks, and, unfortunately, on iOS devices, the gimmicks are required.
