have you done biometrics for another application with USCIS? OPT, Change of Status etc

I did for H1b stamping, my wife did for H4 EAD

that is why. they have reused your biometrics. happens all the time.

@rao y yes, sometimes they approve ead ap without biometrics. happened to me. they mostly need your fingerprints to check your background for I-485. no reason to worry.

that's not true. Visa stamping's fingerprint is Dept of State and AOS biometrics is DHS/USCIS. and reusing it, USCIS also informs you. Combo card these days are quite often approved without biometrics. your ead card will say no fingerprint. you'll need it for AOS.
