The most important thing to remember (by both sides) is that debunking the "LC arguments" doesn't disprove the existence of a conspiracy. All they had to do was consciously allow it to happen, case closed, line up the firing squad on national TV.
My concern is because we NEED a REAL investigation, and so far getting one isn't going good, meanwhile most people that are aware of the subject at all are caught up in the same diversionary issues.
A couple of thoughts here..

5. Follow the Logistics. Many times this means 100s, 1000, or even 10,000s of people would need to be involved along with whole industries in support. Not very likely to say the least.

4. Occam's Razor is ignored. It seems people do not look past their hypothesis very far otherwise they would see it spin off in so many different directions that it just becomes a very unlikely hypothesis. With the Pentagon why would they risk a missile when they already were able to use 3 planes, why not a 4th plane instead of a highly risky missile attack? How about the local people around there that actually saw a plane? Did they crash the exact airline first at high speeds some where else and then truck the few parts that didn't discinigrate to the missle crash site to plant them with no one seeing? I think not....

You keep bringing up the real facts about 911.
But what you fail to realize is conspiracy theories have no basis in fact.
They are by nature a hypothesis supported by conjecture.
If any of the conspiracy hawkers were rushed to the ER and the attending doctor diagnosed them the way they diagnosed 911, they would run out of the hospital.

My argument is that they WANTED everyone all mixed up on this stuff whenever each individual might have gotten around to doing a bit of their own research.
And never mind the clear cut COINTELPRO style campaign they ran to discredit the movement (No Planers and the crap related to all that).
And this is just what I impromtu'd real quick after not hardly discussing the issue in the slightest since around 2010.
The CIA have been perpetrating illegal operations all over the world since shortly after WW2 (like dozens of different incident eras in as many different nations from Central & South America to Africa to the Middle East that are now confirmed).

(Confirmed) operation types include over-throwing democratically elected leaders, rigging elections, assassinations, economic warfare, training "disappear squads", radicalizing Islam, employing Al Qaeda / Osama Bin laden (as late as 2001 in the Balkins) and probably every other sort of black ops wickedness you could imagine.

Your point makes sense, but The Politics of Fear is actual across the board policy. It 'always' has been since the Cold War era (at least).
MUST SEE COLD WAR ERA DOOM-MONGERING: CLEAN UP YOUR HOUSE OR BE NUKED TO DEATH!!!!
After the Cold War "they" needed new material to focus on so then they started really going overboard with stuff like Saddam Hussein ("Hitler Revisted" -GHWB), terrorism, violence, shootings and as Michael Crichton underscored (in State of Fear)... Global Warming.
The HEAD of the CIA could not have an affair in secret.

You dont think that a handful guys over a period of a few months couldn't place enough thermite into key spots... just enough to ensure that with the planes crashing the towers were guaranteed to come crashing down?
If the towers didnt come down it wouldn't have had the same effect on the world.

I have some experience in all this and I kind of understand how this could go down like this without the need for the all knowing perfectly executing secret government, that does not exist BTW.
A big lie is a propaganda technique. The expression was coined by Adolf Hitler, when he dictated his 1925 book Mein Kampf, about the use of a lie so "colossal" that no one would believe that someone "could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously." en.wikipedia.org...

The answer is simple: They intentionally did things of the sort that you mentioned to allow for these sorts of conspiracy theories to run rampant and divert everyone as a whole from reaching and getting active on what I call "Actionable Consensus" issues. In the aftermath, everybody ends up too diverted chasing pipe-dreams and disinfo theories to settle on the core issues which aren't 'over-the-top' and that everybody would have to agree warrant immediate new investigations... as long as there aren't kookfest theories which are more widely parroted and debunked. The idea is to get the most controversial and debatable issues possible on the 'front page' of 'whatever' so that everybody can go back to bed while all those crazies bicker over things like physics and so on. And it would seem phase 2 of the 9/11 operation, which I just described, is going much smoother than the attacks did. If you'd like to challenge my thesis be my guest:

But sir what if those patsies miss the WTC's and hit some other building ?
We just can't press the button!

To declare that with absolute certainty (as if you could REALLY know), is a declaration that you have on blinders that prevent you from having any hope of accepting whatever the truth might be in such a 'where ever the truth takes us' kind of investigation.
Going by that, if you were one of the people in the power structure that might have a chance to dig deeper and maybe do something about it, you wouldn't be willing to, or cognitively capable of doing so, if not for this reason alone.
