“Oxygen makes fires”

it does not.

Oxygen was present on earth a long time before fire was.

Fire, as we know it didn’t arrive until after life. It required vegetation. O is only one part of the fire triangle.

The first evidence of fire on Earth dates back to the late Silurian Period, around 420 million years ago, as identified from charcoal in rocks[1][2]. This was possible due to the presence of land-based flora and sufficient atmospheric oxygen levels. Wildfires became more common with the spread of forests during the Carboniferous Period, about 345 million years ago[1].
