Though ozone isn’t exclusively generated by life—ozone can also result from nitrogen and oxygen exposed to sunlight—

Huh? I thought (and Wikipedia agreed) that the primary source of ozone is stratospheric O2 being broken down into atomic oxygen which then sometomes combines with another O2 to make O3. Plant life just releases the O2.

Further note: if plant life made ozone, your eyes would be burning from it in every forest.
