Daox, my point isn't that it is unicornian, but that there proposal (use a dedicated cylinder for reforming gasses and dedicated egr) is enormously more complicated than direct injection compression ignition and has less gain. You gain flame speed and ignition reliability by increasing pressure as well, as opposed to on-the-fly alchemy. I know what hydrogen does, but there are other ways to do that.

It would be akin to saying feedback carbs should be the primary focus of discussion, here, in 2014.
