Turning off device

Hi, I have a question: Why is possible to turn off device when you didn’t unlock it? I mean for example: My boyfriend bought your new device iPhone X for 1300€. It has face ID, but anyone else can turn it off? Sorry, but isn’t it stupid? I have SE and it’s the same. Fingerprint ID, but turn off button works percectly to everybody. If you lost phone, and you have turned off phone, app find my iPhone won’t work. We tried. So, what’s your answer? Thanks

Face id or passcode Hello everyone. I am from Georgia (saqartvelo). In my country there is high percentage of criminal an 90% of phones (iphone an others) are stolen and police can’t find it. they steal phones, shutting them down and than they are sell by it parts. I want to know is possible or not to require passcode or face ID when phone is shutting down. It can be helpful when you lost it (nobody can shut it down) and you can gind it with your shared location or iCloud also. Thank you.
