Material Causality and Centrifugal Force

'Centrifugal' means 'away from a Center', while 'Centripetal' means 'towards a Center'.  Likewise, Centrifugal Force connotes Causality from a point, while Centripetal Force connotes Causality towards a point.  Now, while the former has not been shown to be impossible, in Modern Physics, it is generally treated as fictional, based on some scenarios in which what appears to be Centrifugal Force is proven to be Centripetal Force.  Thus, any association of Centrifugal Force with events such as a Big Bang, or Universe-Expansion, has precluded by the generalization of that limited sample.  However, Material Causality consists in motion of indefinite direction away from a point, so provides the concept of Centrifugal Force a systematic ground.  Thus, any generalization of that Force as fictional is unjustified, and, perhaps, is a hindrance to fruitful application of it.
