i understand what you mean jonny a very reasonable view.
If player A has complete control of the center, the he/she will able to mobilize their pieces in such a way that it can threatan a castled or uncastle king.
Also, having the center allows a better range of play as you have greater flexibility, you will often see advanced players moving their rooks to the 'd' and 'e' files to increase such pressure.
Cutting through an opposing players middle section of the board makes it very difficult to defend a castles king. I am sure there are more reasons, it does depend on the an individuals style of play but what i said may dserve as basic and generic advice
Hope this helps
