OK, but that's for the high-rated verifiers and large transactions. But
what if someone wants to do a fingerprint or retina check, and _cannot_
perform a higher rated check? They won't go for the lower-rated check. What
about maglocks? Not all of them can check your DNA.

Another question: what exactly is the difference between a biometric
maglock and a normal one? Biometric sounds like it checks one of the things
above, but I thought that was the case with many normal ones too. Is it
somethings extra?
