Why not have a diverter arrangement to a gallon container, and use the

Because it ain't pure. It's mildly acidic at around pH4, mainly
consisting of carbonic acid from the CO2 from combustion..

This is why plastic components are used and stainless steel in the
boiler.

You could perhaps descale your iron with it but that's about all.
