First, no. A photo of you won't unlock it. Nor will a mask of your face. Atleast that's what they said.
Second, purpose of lock is stop unauthorised access. It's same everywhere. In Android phones, laptops, everywhere.
In case of android you can put your contact on the lock screen so if a 'Good Samaritan' finds it , he can use the details to find you. I'm pretty sure there's something like that in iphones.
So, I don't get what you are ranting about.
iPhones have never been more unlockable, as literally a picture of someone on your phone can be used to unlock their phone.
On the subject, I would also like to know what the point of an unlock is? If a criminal has my phone, they are stealing it, period. If a good Samaritan has it and wants to identify the owner, they can't because there is a lock.
This means that the only potential way that I am ever getting it is that there is no lock and a good person found it.
