I think that's only true assuming no other life has appeared in any other place of the universe.

  Or multiples of organisms spawned in earth simultaneously.

    Life has probably spawned abiogenically dozens of times. Lifeforms today are syncretic... they started out separately and merged into what we have now. See this with various endosymbiotes like mitochondria. There's probably also some trees of life currently on Earth that are completely separate from us hiding in plain sight (so to speak).

      Most probably! With same reasoning, it's not hard to think we are not alone in this universe, given the sheer scale of cosmos.
