Let me clarify. You can connect it to your main cold water pipe within five
feet of where it enters the building. You can also connect it to the fuse
box or anything that is grounding the fuse box



No you can't. Bad advice.

Well, the water pipe should be bonded; it just shouldn't be used as a
primary ground. I agree, the correct method would be to use grounding
stakes (several) and ground the panel that way and then bond the water
pipe to the panel (as well as installing bonding jumpers around the
meter and the HWH)
