Of all the schemes to move hydrogen around, another possibility exists. If you can't bring the hydrogen to the customer without an infrastructure to do so, bring the cheap electricity to make the hydrogen at the point of sale.
At 4 cents per kwh, it would cost about 2 dollars per kg. to make the hydrogen on the spot. But you would have to have a LFTR nearby.
Or, the LFTR could plug into the grid and the grid could sell it back at a small premium. More efficient to have it nearby, though.
In any case, if the LFTR were to be used to make electricity that is dedicated to the production of hydrogen for hydrogen fuel cells, it could make a big difference.
