Well, I guess they are saying that this proves planetary disks can form
in the galactic center. So even if they aren't being consumed by the
galactic blackhole, they may still exist around other stars in the region.

And that's a very large and well illuminated region that should be
highly evolved because, all of the local stars at the galactic center
should be those of such terrific metallicity.


Lots of metallicity, but a very turbulent environment, with a lot of
supernovas going off nearby. The largest stars probably form close to here.

Yes in deed, a Goldilocks planet of any stars or even as a rogue/nomad
planet cruising anywhere near the galactic center should be getting
radiated from all directions with considerable gamma and hard X-rays.
However, complex life on a planet like Venus should be well enough
protected by its terrific atmosphere, not that truly intelligent folks
couldn't be quite happy living mostly underground (especially if their
planet had an enormous moon like ours).
