Well, the image by GeoResonance seems to indicate an intact plane. Also, as we now know, the ocean is full of junk.
The only reason a pilot would have to ascend to 45,000 would be to de-pressurize the cabin and neutralize the passengers.
When's the last time you've seen a resident of North Korea "report" anything to the world?
45,000 feet wouldn't be high enough to cause a loss of the amount of oxygen needed to survive. The cabin altitude would've been maybe 10,000 feet or so.

As far as your second point, point taken.
The pilots can de-pressurize the cabin leaving the cabin altitude 45,000 feet.
