Correct. Which is a supporting argument that life and intelligence might be a new thing in the universe, that it took a few billion years to just get through a few cycles of birth and death of stars to create the heavier elements needed. We could be one of the first examples.
Doesn’t rule out the Great Filter as still a thing, new life that expands too quickly and uses up resources can still kill itself in the process.
The sun is also a child of those earlier giant stars. We are several generations down the line (hence why so many elements can be found on Earth).
The sun is more of a very large sibling than a parent.
