There will continue to be uses for gasoline and similar, but the usefulness of an engine relates to the availability of the fuel. Making a new kind of engine that runs on a new kind of fuel is somewhat of a dead end unless you're 1) envisioning a niche application or 2) expecting a wide take-up. But people are largely switching away from combustion engines, and synthetic fuels seem to work fine for the remaining ones. So I think we're going to end up with gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel compatible engines, not whatever this stuff is.
