I certainly wouldn't mind seeing some of my tax money go for that experiment. We try and reproduce it, and either
The building falls the same way
Or it doesn't fall
Or it falls sideways
Or it does something I haven't thought of.

and superthermite turns up as a natural byproduct of combustion of steel.

I'll bet, at the very least, the fall pattern wouldn't be the same.

But I think it is an experiment that will never happen.
