Given the incredible track record of the guy - I would not want to be on the opposite side of any argument with Elon... and he is strongly critical of the potential of H2 in transportation.
But that relates only to fuel cells and he is probably correct on that point. However, the one (huge) tech which he could be overlooking is the possibility that H2 could be used in one of the shrunken orbital methods - Mills, Holmlid, etc. When used in a fuel cell - H2 can return something in the range of 1 eV per atom net power. The potential is much more favorable if Rydberg or similar power levels become available viable catalyzed shrinkage, which... come to think of it... could be a semantic version of "Orchestrated Objective Reduction"... as in hydrogen orbital reduction...
