North .... your amended explanation appears to contain obvious contradictions. As the bold shows.

They would say nothing of the sort, as a few moments of reflection will show you.
They would say 'this galaxy is moving away from us and you are moving
away from us and it, even faster!!'
NOTHING is moving towards anything else. NO THING.
This is a 'four dimensional' description, a term I don't like, but nevertheless. You cannot perceive this as you have previously stated, 3D is good enough, and more than enough for you.
As Mulga Bill stated so emphatically after trading in his horse on a new fangled contraption, (a bicycle) and accidently riding it down a sheer ravine and into the creek at the bottom.
I'll give that two-wheeled outlaw best
its shaken all me nerve
to feel it whistle thru the air
and plunge and buck and swerve.
I've rid a wild Bull round a yard
to win a five pound bet
but this here is the derndest ride
that I've encountered yet
Its safe at rest in Dead Mans Creek
we'll leave it lying still
a horse's back is good enough
henceforth for Mulga Bill.
