I disagree with " that the primary failure mode was floor framing being ripped away from the columns?"!

the columns also failed to support any of the remainder of the falling section even thought they get larger and stronger on the way down and the collapses projected large mass of the buildings in all directions for up to 600 ft.! Yet the collapses never slowed down all the way to the ground!
You're advocating "pancaking" which was not the case!
