Excellent piece and I think you caught the technical problems to a T!
Liquid propellent for tank guns has been argued for a long time, and the general view was that it just was unworkable for tanks with today's technology.
Never thought about its use in artillery, but actually makes a lot of sense, the issues that tankers have with LP can be ignored for the most part with artillery.
