Why not use helium instead of hydrogen, and also maybe don't coat the skin in thermite? 🤷‍♂️

because helium is f'ing expensive an valuable. Once used, it's basically gone. There's a reason that countries have strategic helium reserves.

Also on the topic, modern day companies that try to resurrect airships exist. Just every single one of them goes bust, as it's just not really a viable solution for modern transport
