That hydrogen is superior ot hydrocarbons in every way

No it isn't.

Its poor volumetric energy density rules it out for practical road
use and there'll never be an intercontinental hydrogen powered
airliner either.

and now that we've got a way to make it at about 1/20th the cost
of hydrocarbons

No you haven't.

What do they say about counter-examples?

I see you won't address my complaint that you can't make electricity
from solar cells for 1/20 of what it currently costs.

What do you mean? How many times do I have to go over the technology and
the numbers and the achievements? What are you missing dude?

That's fine. But you'll have to wait to buy energy or synfuel
produced by my system rather than the system itself. Why? Because
when the solar panel can be built for far less than the value of the
energy it produces over its life it is more profitable to keep the
equipment and sell the energy.
