Yes, you could also look for S2... but my point is the opposite one I think you think I’m making: If you’ve found free oxygen, you’ve found life. You can have oxygen-based life without having free oxygen: it took hundreds of millions of years for plants to create enough oxygen to overwhelm the amount of non-oxidized matter on the planet’s surface.
