I think this is just evidence that the 'building blocks' of life are pervasive and the fact life arose on this planet is neither unique nor special.
It's not evidence for panspermia; we found amino acids can be found on Earth too using only inorganic reactants (hydrogen, ammonia, etc.). Even if it was we're just delaying the problem backwards of how the molecules arranged themselves into functional units that can reproduce, metabolise and evolve.
