Why does the Henry classification enjoy greater use than Vucetich's system?

What will be an ideal response?


In 1917, the Argentine government seized all of Vucetich's records and forbade him to do further work (because of strong protests in Buenos Aires against wide-spread fingerprint registration). In 1925, Vucetich died a disappointed man. In contrast, Henry became the head of what was then the world's most prestigious police organization and enjoyed the support of his country. These advantages, coupled with Vucetich's loss of support in his own country, meant that the Henry classification system would become adopted virtually worldwide.
