Both have losses,

I'm not sure you understand how small the losses are to transport electricity from source to car battery. You cannot beat it for efficiency and you will pollute more just so others which are clearly NOT YOU get more money and power and control over people. That's it. It's about money and against our safety on this planet, since the hydrogen bullshit pollutes more. It's anti-green by default and no amount of washing will change that.

Losses from pipelines aren't very large either. At long distances, this is actually less than what you will experience from wires.

Like I said, the entire process of making and using hydrogen is analogous to battery swapping. You have to think of the battery as being this fluid that can be moved around to where it needs to go, effectively replacing wires. But the end result is basically the same.
