Not really, it's believed the hydrocarbon clouds are a precursor to possible life formation, and that it's possible that's exactly how our solar system was formed in such a way to produce life on Earth, which is inarguably the precursor for humans. So to say this is looking at something that happened similarly in our (human) distant past is at least accurate based on our current understanding. A bit sensational, perhaps, but I wouldn't call it clickbait.
