Doesn’t the human face have other identifiable features?

When trying to identify a person, you generally look at zones: eyes and ears, nose and cheeks, and mouth and chin. Preferably you’d cover up several zones, as many people have noses for example that are not very common

If you only saw a chin there’d be a quite low chance of you identifying a person, but eyes – including color, tilt, width, distance between – is more distinct
