In regards to this quote:

"The earliest time that life forms first appeared on Earth is at least 3.77 billion years ago, possibly as early as 4.28 billion years,[1] or even 4.5 billion years;[3][4] not long after the oceans formed 4.41 billion years ago"

I do not know exactly what meaning is intended. All I can say is that, while 3.77 BYA and 4.28 BYA fit the criteria "not long after ... 4.41 billion years ago", 4.5 BYA dos not fit this category, as it comes before 4.41 BYA on the time line.

Can you please re-phrase this for logical consistency?

Thanks,
