Because no one will ever want a more explosive vehicle option and you’re not going to convince them hydrogen cars aren’t more explosive than gasoline.
Also, fuck em. Hydrogen still produces water vapor which is only barely better for the environment than the carbon dioxide from gasoline emissions. Hydrogen cars are a stupid idea when evs are right there

This is completely incorrect. Even if we directed our entire industrial efforts to making water vapor, it would pale in comparison to a single hurricane. Anthropogenic water vapor is insignificant compared to evaporation from the oceans - which is incidentally why we need permaculture instead of industrially supplied water to fight desertification.
Water vapor in the atmosphere is part of how the greenhouse effect works, but not because humans put the water vapor there. As global temperature rises, the atmosphere can physically contain more water vapor per cubic meter without it turning into clouds or rain, and that causes there to be more water vapor.
