Honestly, I think the whole 'jet fuel can't melt steel beams' thing is a distraction.
I spent a weekend digging into the NIST reports from 2005, specifically the part about the fireproofing being knocked off the steel. Tbh, once you look at the actual engineering data about thermal weakening, the popular online argument falls apart pretty fast. Has anyone else actually read the full technical appendix, or do people just repeat the soundbite?

Ngl, my eyes glazed over just reading "technical appendix," so I'll take your word for it.

You didn't even look at the charts? The whole argument falls apart on page three. They used a completely wrong data set. It's right there in the first footnote. How can you agree without checking the basic numbers?
