If one can't be certain about the level the flight is at, and there is a loss of comms, you apply a...

Actually, Pilot-br, If I am to understand your translation correctly this is normal, and, as far as I know, the way clearances are issued all over the world.

Yes, it was. It is everywhere. Tactical changes to flight plans occur all the time.
Others have tried (very capably in my opinion) to explain this.
A flight plan is just that. A booking, if you...

The outer half of its left wing was torn off in the collision, making controlled flight impossible.

Chris2000, It seems likely, from what's reported here, that the controller/s weren't aware the transponder had failed. Seems likely the pilots weren't aware of that, either. Have a look at the IFATCA...
