I did see an interview with the chief architect? of the WTC after 9-11, he said almost wailing 'we never expected anyone to fly jumbo jets into it!' He was clearly blaming himself.

Are you suggesting that such occurances should be taken into account? Those jets were barely airborne, fueled for a trans-continental flight. All of the fuel was now in the buildings and burning. Want to take a guess at the ambient temperatures.
As for the Italian's documentary, it so happens that I knew and worked with a lot of the NIST people and came away impressed, and I don't impress too easily.
