"This is a poor fire for heat. I would say that inside a relatively air tight building the fire would be starved for oxygen and therefore not very hot."

You forget, the buildings were not longer "air tight" after having been penetrated from the outside. And, your analogy of the lamp controlling the build up of hear is a poor one as I can also give you the analogy of a blast furnace.

What happens when you put wind to a forest fire? Now, what happens to the fire in a building at 75 stories with wind carrying oxygen into the penetrated outer shell?
