Touch ID is on the power button of iPad Air. Hopefully it will return on iPhone Air.

Very unlikely. Also, the Touch ID in the iPad Air (and iPad mini) doesn’t work quite as well as the round Touch ID sensors on the Home buttons, due to the narrower shape and the placement. As a power button it’s also a bit clunky.

Still more deterministic than Face ID.

There was also a rumor of in-display Touch ID.

I’d think that would be tricky to integrate with a decent case.
