Right, right.

Technically, yes, as a mathematical model, but you'd have to carefully hand-set the apparent recessional velocities of distant objects to be in perfect proportion to their distances. To say such a relation would be unlikely if all the matter was flying through existing space as if from an explosion, that would be a large understatement
But the whole arrangement is 'naturally' explained by the "expansion" of space. The solution
falls out of this simple model.
