You covered the most important detail that I think most people skip and that is that hydrogen is just a very inefficient battery if you are utilizing green hydrogen. With the intrinsic inefficiencies of generating green hydrogen and the of fuel cells you will always end up using 3-4x the amount of energy versus just charging an EV directly. That is even before you deal with transportation, storage, and pressurization of the hydrogen.
Now cheap hydrogen can be useful for industrial processes and aerospace so seeing the cost come down is still very good.
