Basically, the descriptive title asks the question.
Since iOS 17, Apple prevents you from turning off your passcode while Touch ID is set up.
Therefore, must you delete your Touch ID fingerprint before installing an iOS update? The iOS will install automatically, and if it does while Touch ID is enabled, will I be locked out of your iPhone afterwards?
Thanks for your replies.

No, you do not have to delete your fingerprint (and shouldn't). Your iPhone will update just fine, unless there's something significantly amiss. I updated my iPads and iPhone multiple times and never had to remove either the fingerprint for Touch ID nor the settings for Face ID.
Regards.
Thank you for the reply. Can I change the Author ID name?
Can an update be installed if Touch ID is not enabled on iPhone?
