I find it perfectly plausible that a crashed plane might cause a fire and that a fire might cause partial or total structural collapse of a skyscraper, and those two combined would explain all observations very simply—I see no need to investigate more complex hypotheticals.
I’m talking about WTC 7, which wasn’t hit by any plane.

It was hit by debris from WTC 1.
