I *fully* appreciate this is an 'early finding', that needs more investigation and corroboration, but I still cannot help to be excited by it!
A molecule that, at least on Earth, is only produced by living organisms has possibly been detected on a distant exoplanet (along with CO2 and methane, pointing at water oceans).

I agree this needs more research, there was a lot of excitement when phosphine was found on Venus for example.
but yeah if we can find more evidence of life, through related molecules we can perhaps aim different sensors in that direction and gather more data.
