- small vehicles aren't taken far (otherwise it's exhausting), so easily achievable 50-100 mile ranges are just fine

- small vehicles will have small, quickly, easily, cheaply rechargeable batteries, likely easily recharged from even plain old wall sockets

- LFP batteries will probably get good/cheap/dense enough to handle almost all 50-100 mile small vehicle ranges, its doubtful a hydrogen engine will get cheap enough soon enough

- and again, LFP and EV/battery tech is in the mainline of economies of scale, buildout, production, and cost cutting, and will be for a decade more. This stuff will need to compete at a price point 50% lower or less than today's.

- and it still has the sourcing problems. green hydrogen still smacks of the "clean coal" whitewash with a different label
