All the iron beams had to do was melt enough to weaken the structure. As a weak point bends inward, millions of tons of pressure start to push in on it.

Say it with me. No. Controlled. Demolition.
I couldn't agree more. The iron didn't melt, it got weakened until the point it buckled.

You mention oxygen getting sucked in from the broken windows. You also need to remember the oxygen getting sucked up to the fires. The WTC towers were closed - air tight. The elevator shafts were air tight when sealed, but they were compromised somewhere along the line. So air was forced up to the fires too.
