29. Because many OCTers
take the NIST report to be their Holy Grail. Yet if the modeling is flawed, then the results will also be flawed.

One of the big problems are the assumptions the investigators had to make because of lack of information. For example, for WTC 2 they were only given the floor plan for the 78th Floor. For the other floors in the impact zone they used the plan for the 78th Floor and made some adjustment to the layouts based on info they could get from people who worked on those floors. One problem with anecdotal evidence is that just because I worked on a floor doesn't mean I know much about the layout of the entire floor. That might not be much of a problem if all the floors are pretty much the same, but they weren't. That is where they made some significant mistakes.
