So I get people with 2nd gen touch ID (6s/6s+/7/7+ users) that want some time to see notifications on lock screen before extremely quickly being pulled into the home screen, even inadvertently.

But why not just press with a non recognized finger, in those cases? Or the wonderful invention of raise to wake that eliminates this "problem" too?

Seems there isn't consistency to press to unlock, since pressing home button/touch ID to wake device sometimes but not always bypasses the need to press again

I just don't get how it improves user experience, at all.

I'm still glad to turn this off in accessibility settings and return to iOS 9 days, where I'm still wow'd by the speed of it validating my finger, and on times when I don't want to be, I have options still.

Seems like this is more or less basically the type of discussion that just recently happened at https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/confused-about-rest-finger-to-open.2003937/
