OK. I understand we can't get more energy out of it. But maybe something without high pressure tank or industrial freezer to keep it in liquid form? I know I'm in a state of denial but I have a gut feeling that EV, at least with lithium batteries, shouldn't be the way forward.

If hydrogen is really a dead end, maybe solid state batteries that doesn't be a fire hazard and full charge in 5 minutes? Standardization of EV batteries are the way to go but I can see lots of resistance on the path.
