The cabin heat is fairly negligible in harvesting the ~70% waste.

Hydrogen is 60% efficient in a best case scenario. 40% in a more common one.

It's just a ton of complication/overhead to be significantly worse than a BEV. As mentioned before, this really only makes sense in the use-cases where the energy density of batteries just can't cut it.
