For purposes of causality, negative correlation is the same as positive. The only distinction we care about, there, is zero or nonzero correlation.)
That makes sense. I was wrong to emphasize the “even negatively”, and should instead stick to something like “slightly negatively”. You have to care about large vs. small correlations or else you’ll never get started doing any inference (no correlations are ever exactly 0).
