Nah the swipe is superior. Most phones don’t use a physical button anyway, it’s a fake button you just can’t use that part of the “screen”. And personally I don’t want a physical button back, the physical home button was the thing that died on both of my iPod touches and my first phone. A home button is just another piece that can break.
The point-of-failure argument is a good one, but it's worth saying that Apple fixed this before eventually removing the home button: In later iPhones with the home button it didn't actually physically click, it was capacitive with haptic feedback to simulate the feeling of a click.
