I don’t know where to start. You should do some serious research on TWA 800.

Unreliable witnesses? Like the 2 Vietnam veteran NG helicopter pilots in the air a few miles from TWO 800. Tey knew what SAMs and Manpads looked like.

The government tried to discredit witnesses by firing a Manpad on a day that was considerably more hazy than the night of the shoot down. Some witnesses observed the test from where they watched TWA 800 and stated the test fire looked identical to what they saw.

The wiring in the center fuel tank is mili-volts. You could scrape the wires and try to arc them all day and you would not be able to get Kerosene or Kerosene vapor to ignite.

There’s much, much more, but if you are curious , that should get you going. The TWA 800 on Netflix is good for an overview but lack many details, probably due to the constrains of making it a watchable length.

The air guard pilots asked if it was pyro. No mention of a missile. The East Wind pilot headed towards 800 said that it looked like his landing lights were on. (possibly he saw flames) he stated that when he turn on his landing lights is when 800 blew up. He was in an even better position as he was heading directly towards 800 at almost the same flight level.
