Finger print readers have been garbage or gone since pixel 4

I must be living in another dimension because I cannot grasp all the complaints about the in-display fingerprint reader. I had a Pixel 3a XL with a capacitive fingerprint reader and then switched to the Pixel 7 Pro. I was hesitant at first because of all the complaints. But honestly: the difference is marginal at best. It works fine 9 out of 10 times both in terms of speed and accuracy.

The only exception is when I have a sweaty finger. But then the 3a's fingerprint reader couldn't really deal with that either.
