I think our species chauvinism is pretty strong. I think the discovery of life on other worlds would have very little practical change to our daily lives.
For example, we seemed to have handled the fact that the dolphins and whales in our oceans are fairly intelligent. Why would finding intelligent whales in Enceladus oceans be any different?
