It's not an argument, I'm just relaying what heat pump installers need to change in order for the pumps to work.
The system also needs to provide hot water.
> The reality is that we don't have time to wait on unproven technologies like hydrogen boilers
They're not unproven, 20pc hydrogen ready boilers are being sold today.
> Despite what you say, heat pumps are working at scale today around the world and individuals can go buy them now and successfully heat and cool their homes.
That some people have used heat pumps to successfully heat their homes was never disputed.
They're just not the panacea they are made out to be for UK housing.
