I know Touch ID can be disabled as it's optional much like a pin code, but there's 1 thing that botheres me.
If I want to reboot the 5s, but without Touch ID/PIN Code enabled, does it ask for a Pin code, or it just boots up normally like a normal iPhone?
Because a Wikipedia article said when you reboot it asks you for a PIN Code....

Hello there, XldanLord.
The following Knowledge Base article has some great information about how the process works:

After restarting your iPhone 5s
There is also a link within that article for "Using Touch ID" that might also provide additional understanding on the feature.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
