If you take a tall structure, wrap it in a highly flammable petro-chemical compound and set fire to it, it will quickly become a conflagration. This is perfectly normal (the clue is in the word flammable). Are you suggesting the GT fire was some kind of aberration of the laws of physics?
Isn't that what the stairwells are mainly for? Getting the fúck out in the event of a fire.
Once everyone who can get out by their own means are out send the fire and rescue teams in to get the others out.
The same fire and rescue team who can stick their 'stay' advice up their collective arses.

From the Telegraph
Matthew Needham-Laing, an architect who is head of construction at Katten Law UK, said that the first known cladding fire in the UK was in 1991 and there had been concerns in the industry about its fire safety for a number of years.
He said: "This is not a shock, the problems with cladding have been known about and talked about for a number of years and hopefully this will at least make people listen."
Mr Wilkinson said: "In Knowsley Heights in Manchester in 1991, fire spread in a way no one had predicted via the decorative cladding on the outside of the building.
"Something similar happened in Irvine in 1999, after which new regulations were put out which limited the types of cladding which could be used."
There have been fires which spread in high-rise buildings in France, the UAE and Australia that had similar cladding, according to the BBC's Newsnight programme.
