There’s nothing about panspermia in the article and nothing in the research that suggests it has anything to do with the results.

The whole point of this instance is ‘evidence-based speculation about the future’. It’s fine to put up your own opinions about things, with supporting arguments, for debate.

It doesn’t suggest that they are correct, merely that they are topics for discussion. Lots of scientific papers suggest jumping off points for other ideas and concepts, that aren’t referenced in the original paper.
