I'm suggesting that it happened at 00:31:12

What evidence is there that anything unusual happened aboard TWA 800 at 31:12 according to the timing given on the ARTCC transcript?

None that I'm aware of. But as I'm sure you are aware, pilots are trained that in the event of an emergency, making a radio broadcast is one of your last priorities. It would be very odd if someone made a radio call about witnessing an explosion the second TWA 800 blew up.
