that would kill almost all journalism, which is never tired of telling us the why, when there is no why.
that would narrow a lot most social science researches.
we, humans, are still not adults, we need reasons, we need good stories, those that make sense. but the probable truth is that there are no reasons.
could be called correlationism.
