Chemist here. This is absolutely the correct response.

Organic does not imply biological in origin or nature whatsoever. The laws that govern organic chemistry are constant throughout the universe -- I'm not an astrochemist, but there is likely a nontrivial amount of very interesting organic chemistry happening in our solar system. I believe we've detected the presence of amino acids, for instance, which are the product of both organic (and in our case) biochemical reactions.
