So it is conceivable then that a nuke in the basement would produce no flash outside the building. In other words when nukes are muffled by matter they lose their distinctive appearances.

That is a fair assumption to make that the nuclear blast signature would be hidden well by the building. Detonated inside a building would be like exploding "underground".
Ed Ward has a web site of WTC which shows craters.
I still contend that fusion device did the demolition.

Because the H-bomb in that photo was detonated underground. WTC is collapsing down. Comparison failed.
Several tritium radioluminescent (RL) devices were investigated as possible sources of the traces of tritium at ground zero. Tritium is used in self-luminescent emergency EXIT signs. No such signs were present inside the WTC buildings. However, it was determined that Boeing 767-222 aircraft operated by the United Airlines that hit WTC Tower 2 as well as Boeing 767-223ER operated by the American Airlines, that hit WTC Tower 1, had a combined 34.3 Ci of tritium at the time of impact. Other possible sources of tritium include dials and lights of fire and emergency equipment, sights and scopes in weaponry, as well as time devices equipped with tritium dials. It was determined that emergency equipment was not a likely source. However, WTC hosted several law-enforcement agencies such as ATF, CIA, US Secret Service and US Customs. The ATF office had two weapon vaults in WTC Building 6. Also 63 Police Officers, possibly carrying handguns with tritium sights, died in the attack. The weaponry containing tritium was therefore a likely and significant source of tritium. It is possible that some of the 2830 victims carried tritium watches, however this source appears to be less significant that the other two.
Description/Abstract Traces of tritiated water (HTO) were determined at World Trade Center (WTC) ground zero after the 9/11/01 terrorist attack. A method of ultralow-background liquid scintillation counting was used after distilling HTO from the samples. A water sample from the WTC sewer, collected on 9/13/01, contained 0.174[plus_minus]0.074 (2[sigma]) nCi/L of HTO. A split water sample, collected on 9/21/01 from the basement of WTC Building 6, contained 3.53[plus_minus]0.17 and 2.83[plus_minus]0.15 nCi/L, respectively

Ultra sensative background counter- not talking about huge concentration
In fact had to distill water to concentrate the Tritium so could be measured

that is thermonuclear hydrogen bombs of the forth generation.
or even of the fifth generaation due to they are of a size now that will level a building and only the building.
Is there something magical or mystical about Special Atomic Demolitions Munitions?
