From what I gather, you are correct. Furthermore, as there is no actual surface to stand on the theoretical forces such a surface would exert on a body (centrifugal due to lateral acceleration, and also normal) cannot exist anyway, so there is no physical predictive element to the idea anyway.

Close to a rotating black hole the force is so strong it can even prevent light from orbiting in the opposite direction to the spin of the black hole itself.
