From my reading about high-rise buildings which have been on fire they don't collapse.

What readings are those?

In fact, they seem to burn for days and days until nothing more than a shell is left.

With an example being...?

Therefore, I must believe that, absent theoretical explosives, the WTC should have burned in a similar fashion to similar buildings which were ablaze.

What buildings "similar" to the WTC towers - in size, structure, and the circumstances (being hit by commercial airliners) are you referring to in comparison?

Indeed, there are reasons to believe that the fires at the WTC were not as severe as in other conflagrations...

What are those reasons?

...and therefore there was even a good possibility that they could have been put out.

Yes, if the buildings hadn't collapsed.
