If you needed to do an automated check of a persons identity doesnt it make sense to do an id check + biometric check? Thats what happens at the traditional airport gates except its a person looking at your passport and looking at your face.
Have you ever traveled internationally? They know who you are. You are not anonymously entering another country through an international airport. Whether its going through an automated check in process or going through a manual one they know who you are and they have a record of what you look like, fingerprint, name, passport number credit card and probably other stuff im forgetting.
What are you actually preserving by avoiding having your face scanned? This is such a weird privacy take.
they don’t reasonably need biometric data to keep a record. they do need it, that’s not what I dispute, but not reasonably.

exactly, it does not need to be automated, and then less info is required.
Automation in these areas often increases the amount of collected information by a lot.
