But there are legitimate questions raised about how flight simulator pilots acquired the skills to fly planes with such pecision into buildings.

It can't be that hard to fly a plane or there would be dozens of crashes a year. It's probably hard to fly it well, and smoothly, and takeoff and land, but there is no reason to think it takes more than a few days training to fly it.

Here is a picture of the burning WTC shortly before the collapse.


Notice how much lower the fires are than in pictures an hour earlier. Normally fires would move up, not down. I think this is evidence that floors were collapsing, dropping burning material into lower floors, but had not yet got to the point that the walls began to buckle. Without the floors to keep the walls straight up and down they would be able to bend as they heated.
