It's always been clear to me that Hydrogen is not the future, because the car companies that made hydrogen cars never tried to build a hydrogen fuel distribution system.

The main reason EVs are a thing is that Tesla built the supercharger network. The fact that Honda or Toyota didn't do that for Hydrogen is the reason it has not been a serious fuel alternative. And they probably didn't do that because they always knew the economics would never work out and were never serious about pursuing it.
