Small, multi-fuel, engines do have interesting applications. I tend to agree though. The other big thing, these rotary engines have traditionally had poor combustion. Direct injection and turbulent jet ignition have focused on improving combustion efficiency and made tremendous gains. I’m not sure how liquidpiston addresses that, especially with the fuel claims. Traditionally you’d add fuel additives to help with combustion efficiency.
