Dense hydrogen may react with some other elements to form useful dense compounds—maybe dense water. That may be a problem for biological systems, however. However it may be a good heat transfer medium with a high boiling point and a high triple point above that for light water.
In the mid 60’s I remember an incident of the identification of dense water—that was the term used by the physics folks I worked with then-- and I didn’t think it was fake news. The subject went dark shortly thereafter. If dense H can be accelerated by its magnetic moment—I assume it has one—then it may act more like a neutron at some energy and fuse at relatively low energies. Dense D or T may even work to fuse at lower temperatures. I wonder if Mills has done the calculations for a D-heavy—D-heavy fusion? T-heavy may not have a decay mode with the close valence electron keeping the extra nuclear electrons in tact. (This assumes the structure of the T isotope includes many electrons and positrons as proposed by P. Hatt and validated by high energy electron scattering experiments, analyzed by W. Stubbs. I assume he would call this duetrino fusion. I would hope the temperature of a deutrino plasma would be high enough to avoid a run-away fusion reaction.

The catalyst used - a mix of iron oxide and nickel are both associated with dense hydrogen - either the Mills effect of the Holmlid effect. Thus, there is a decent chance that in addition to normal splitting water - this technique involves the densification of some of the H2 gas as it evolves. No attempt is made to collect it, of course, since the mainstream does not accept the findings of Mills or Holmlid, so using the output gas itself as secondary catalyst or excess energy source - was not considered. Given the future importance of hydrogen - even migrating to a possible "hydrogen economy" in the future - additional catalysis or energy derived from utilizing dense hydrogen should be looked at closer (under the assumption that UDH is now only an incidental or unplanned part of the process and not optimized).
