Courts care about precise distinctions of law (that's their purpose!). Seems clear that fingerprints aren't protected, basically the same thing as your face in terms of privacy given a good enough camera.

But they would effectively be asking you the question "which finger did you use to lock this phone" to which you may plead the 5th.
