In case you're not aware, the bug basically makes the iPhone freeze and reboot following a failed attempt to authenticate via Face ID. If you have this bug, your phone will simply stop responding to any touch input after the failed Face ID attempt, and then proceed to reboot after a few seconds.

It's indefensible because failing an authentication is a possible result of a basic use case. This means that Apple didn't care to even test a basic use case properly. Also, if you read the source, you would know that it isn't only one...
