Hi
Interesting though it is as a possible explanation of the incredibly rapid spread of the fire on the outside of the Building it does not answer other questions.
The staircase is supposed to be protected by fire doors and screens, giving people an hour to get out in high rise.
This obviously did not work either.
Each flat is supposed to have a self closing fire door to protect the occupants inside until the Fire Brigade arrive, and conversely, to stop a fire in one flat spreading to others.
