You raise dying some good points, but hydrogen is really hard to store. It leaks out of everything. You have to very carefully design three containment vessel in order for it not to go wrong.

A statement predicated upon truth, but exaggerated and expanded with everty repeated retelling.
It's a solved problem. It's not an issue.
How is it not an issue? The physics of hydrogen being one proton and one electron means it gets through everything, so something that's air tight and water tight still won't be hydrogen tight. So then you have to be extra careful with every coupling and fitting in order for it to be transferred. By "solved" you mean "if we do everything right, it works", which sounds like it'll be a total failure in the sloppy messy real world where things get kinda shitty but you still need them to work.
