A sudden random force would not cause them to break in a perfectly uniform fashion leaving a sooty residue along the edge. Most importantly....the evidence proves the plane was nowhere near the poles: I get that they are designed to break. In my opinion that break you are talking about while much neater than the others is not perfectly uniform. The discoloration does not have to be soot. The break appears too smooth to have been cut with a torch, but too rough for a metal saw. As for it being evidence that it was not knocked down by an aircraft, it is not convincing to me. But it is interesting. You are deliberately dishonest. The cut goes through the bottom portion of the cast aluminum breakaway base which has strengthening ridges cast into it. The base is stronger there and it is not a shear point. That particular base was most definitely cut off by a plasma torch or saw. This angle shows the cut going right through the strengthening ridges of the base end. The base would never shear there and it is not designed to shear there.
