>its possible it could end up impacting something and potentially contaminating it with Earth organisms.

I dunno about you, but I would be really, really excited if other planets became infested with Earth organisms. I mean, that's kinda the whole reason for space travel in the first place!

I understand the argument for sterilized launches, etc. etc. but I can't help but wonder if it's holding terraforming back in the long run.
