A hint would be that none of the mentioned munitions, MK-84, BLU-109, and GBU-39, are thermobaric. They're conventional HE or penetrator munitions.

What are they used for normally, what are they designed to do? And does the normal explanation perhaps make a lot more sense than pointing at the tiny details that fits a conspiracy theory?
