Could just as easily be a new natural process for creating that molecule, though. 😮‍💨

I agree that, if the detection is accurate and correct, it could be produced through non-biological processes, but, on earth, the molecule in question is known to be produced solely by biological processes. So when you say “easily”, I must disagree.
