I would guess "air as disinfectant" is primarily because of its oxygen content. O_2 is actually a pretty nasty molecule like that. Oxidation is typically a fairly tough reaction to reverse or prevent.

Isn't there plenty of O_2 indoors also?

Ozone is 03 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone). 02 is the normal oxygen as we think of it.
