People working in citrus orchards are known to temporarily lose their prints. Imagine having no digital access for over a month. It's a huge contingent of people.
Other people are known to lose limbs.🤷♂️
Whatever we think of, it's got to be some 3 or 4 possible systems to cover 99.9% of the cases. And then you're still left with a lot of marginalized edge cases; and a system that can be exploited by creating multiple disconnected identities using the different systems in isolation.
I hope I'm wrong and it's just my own limitations in creativity, but I don't see a light at the end of this tunnel.
Completely agree, I was just addressing the durability of prints as it was misrepresented in OPs comment. Burning yourself on a cast iron (or working with citrus and the like) would at most give you temporary problems with scanning the prints. But a severed finger is definitely impossible to read. For most people the problem though first occurs with aging which affects the elasticity of the skin, making prints hard to read.
