> if it was taxed to correctly account for its externalities?
I think you kind of identified the issue there, though. Externalities are notoriously difficult to tax and account for. The issue with EVs is that they are intrinsically better than hydrogen in nearly every way. Even issues with long distance driving and recharging are quickly improving with EVs, and the improvements are happening much faster than anything going on with hydrogen.
