If a flat was on fire you should have been safe to move into the core
and then go down the stairs and escape.
It shouldn't matter that other flats were on fire.

A proper enquiry will find out why the core failed and so many couldn't
get out. The cladding is a side issue and may well be hiding the real
issues.

People were told (in both the short and long term) to stay inside their
flats and await rescue. But that only works if most of the flats aren't
also on fire from the outside in.
