    It isn’t arbitrary. Just a simplified example of stored energy to weight ratio.

    Infra would show up if people didn’t jump on wrong tech just like electric charging infra is starting to show up.

      There’s that subjective “wrong tech” again

      And again, the wholesale infrastructure needed is what I’m talking about, not the infrastructure availability.

      Again: hydrogen requires, at a minimum, production facilities, trucking to distribution nodes, and fueling stations to get the fuel to the consumer.

      Electricity… Is already being delivered. It just needs a way to plug in.

      This has precisely zero to do with which tech has been “jump[ed] on”.
