I would imagine it to match that the biometrics on file with the biometrics presented at the border to catch forgeries?

Also think espionage/intelligence - those passports won't be forgeries (as they will gov issued), but there will be people travelling around the world with multiple "identities" shall we say, and this is going to make all that much harder.

Is there a high incidence of forgeries?

It's not forgery so much as people using the same passport. People look similar.
