To be clear, the oxygen source they found is tiny relatively speaking it's just a surprise it's there at all (and even then the measured oxygen level levelled out after 48hrs so it may not even be a continuous source of oxygen under normal circumstances, they theorised that it may have been caused by them stiring up the seabed when they dropped the chambers down)

Iirc it did turn out that certain life was found in far greater abundance in areas with that oxygen source though, its tiny overall but huge for the local environment.
