energy density of hydrogen is very similar to gasoline

Per unit mass, sure. Per unit volume, no, not at all, and it's not even close.

I am sure human ingenuity could have made a docking system for quick hydrogen tank filling or swaping for people's cars.

It's never going to happen because the goal was always to strip the plebs of mobility to force them to live in the pod city.

My nation swims in 100% renewable electricity yet electric battery vehicles are still uncommon. We'll run out of components to make the batteries before supplying the demand if we were to replace gas cars anyway, so the WEF plan is rather obvious.

Handling hydrogen requires special tanks, pumps, interfaces, and industrial processes which would all be subject to centralized regulation and control. It doesn't empower the plebs or whatever any more than gasoline or battery powered vehicles.

So does gasoline.

Gasoline isn't a cryogenic liquid. It doesn't boil off through a double walled vacuum flask.

A tank of Hydrogen will boil off to be vented to the atmosphere in a matter of weeks, depending on the tank size.

Yes, that is why I directly compared it to gasoline in the second sentence of my post.

Yep, volumetric energy density of compressed gaseous hydrogen is laughable. Even cryogenic liquid hydrogen is not great and then you have all the crazy overhead of cryogenic storage.
