Default Fundamental differences between H and B

I'm sold on B's, H's are for Preludes and Accords but what is the difference between the series other than size? Is the H a big bore long throw B? I'm not looking for stupid answers like different cam profiles (no sh*t), but rather major mechanical differences.

Dude the list can go on all day, try searching the archives on this site you'll find everything that you need know.
The b-series and H-series are two totally different engines, I don't believe they share anything.

I know they don't share anything, I'm speaking from a sort of principles of mechanics view. Again I state, what are the major MECHANICAL differences aside from the completely obvious. Again no silly stuff like difference cam profiles and such. There must be a reason why it's not a B22. I'm curious, does one crank spin the other way? I-beam rods instead of H-beam or vice versa. What makes the series different? Again, I know that they are different sizes and all the basics, I'm talking about the brainy mechanical diffs.

Yeah but that's old skool BB1 'Lude, right? But I'm looking for mechanical diffs.

an engine is an engine. An engine series is an engine series.

no the crank spins the same way (I heard someone used a b16 tranny on h22 with a adapter plate). Tranny is different, mount points are different, little bigger deck height, some h22 have closed deck design unlike B series (which makes me believe that they are little stronger but it's just my observation) well it's a totaly different block. So just stop and I don't know what you are trying to figure out.
