Yes, but that explanation would imply a zero point in spacetime...i.e. a point of origin which would be observable. Given our point of reference, it would mean that the Earth (or where the Earth is in relation to the rest of the universe) would be the centre. That would make the geocentrists and the creationists extremely happy

That would also mean the CMB would appear to have a different temp at different positions within the universe....something we don't see from observation. Despite our position, the anisotropy would be detectable in the light coming from these distant objects, which it isn't.
