I'm using it as an example of a valuable fact about disease being established by correlation.
Your paragraph speaks about correlation providing a hypothesis while the "fact about disease" was established by an experimental intervention study.
I think we're getting into a discussion about what it means for something to be established as a fact, which doesn't sound very useful.
