Bought a new MB Air for my husband. Seems you either need to enter a password or set up the Finger Touch for the computer to start. On my MB Air 2020 version, It starts up without having to enter a password and Finger Touch option isn't available. Can you remove the password requirement, or do I just have him set up the Finger Touch option?
MacBook Air 15″, macOS 13.6
Even if you have Touch ID enabled you still need a password before you can setup the Touch ID and a password is required to be entered (rather than the Touch ID) whenever you startup or restart the Mac.

The password was newer set,
so you can start without it
It is not must have but recommended to have
Do you either have to enter a password or use Finger Touch to start a MacBook Air?
