"I expect scientists will be working hard to propose non-biological processes that could explain these results."

If scientists don't attempt to explain a dramatic claim using other mundane explanations I'd be very suspicious of calling them scientists. Occam's razor is a useful tool. Be very suspicious if dramatic claims aren't tested. Otherwise I have a bridge for sale...
