3. It really doesn't matter. It's been a bullshit nonstarter for half a century.

Economic laws are, at the end of the day, subject to the more important laws of physics. One cannot make energy cheaper by wasting it.

The hydrogen bros/sock puppets/fossil fuel greenwashers here and elsewhere are simply members of a long line of energy fools stretching back to the badly educated moron Amory Lovins. Hydrogen Energy has a long history of going nowhere and as of now is nowhere and it won't go anywhere. There is well known data on how much CO2 is generated to make hydrogen and it's ugly and as clear as day. The Potemkin "green" hydrogen is simply a marketing ploy and comes out of the fossil fuel companies' marketing budget rather like "sequestration."
