I replied to the person above you who made essentially the same comment.

I understand that part and somewhat agree, but still think progress is cool. Especially in a futurology post.

I'll agree that learning how to better work with and contain hydrogen could have some future benefits, and research should absolutely be made in those directions. Until those key issues are dealt with, hydrogen isn't useful as a consumer energy source/store since it has been surpassed by batteries/electricity in almost every area it would be useful (and isn't mature enough to be competitive in the areas it hasn't been surpassed),
