Earth-like is a very broad term. If an organism has something similar to DNA or shared any kind of chemical processes it could be “earth-like”.
As an odd hypothetical example, there is a theory that fungi could potentially spread from planet to planet. Even with a billion or so years of independent evolution, fungi on Venus and fungi on Earth could still share some of the same traits.
Conspiracy theorists: “scientists know it’s all wrong but they’re preventing the truth from coming out to protect their precious ‘theories’”
Actual scientists: “crap, our theories were dead on yet again, damn it, will someone please finally blow even a tiny hole in this thing so we can move forward”
That is a quite weak statement, I presume it implies that this result has not excluded a cosmological constant by a long shot, bacause that would have been huge.
