It would be treated as would other similar references such as nevertheless, therefore etc which would refer BACK rather than forward.

You are correct. I have never understood why people took the 'for this cause' to be referring to the angels. It's referring to the woman being created for the man. However, I don't understand what the 'because of the angels' verse means, and many scholars don't either.
