Will the late heavy bombardment be shown in the 'Origins of life' trilogy?

Spoiler❓Question

Not sure if this counts as a spoiler or not, so I'm marking as such just in case.

It surprised me that the 'Origins of life' part 1, 2 and 3 have suddenly been changed to 'The Earth's core' and it made me wonder what ever happened to the planned Origins of life bit, and though it may not be the most reliable source I've seen some people on Fandom wiki say that the Origins of life segment will still happen after the Earth's core part.

If the Origins of Life is indeed still happening, will it finally have Jupiter and Saturn doing the Late Heavy Bombardment where they'll send water to the rocky planets? After all, Theia did say that water is needed for a planet to have life.

Though this documentary says that the bombardment happened pretty much right after Jupiter's grand tack, I really hope that it'll show Jupiter and Saturn sending water to the rocky planets to further show their attempts to help any of the planets develop life to atone for the destruction of the old rocky planets during the Grand tack.

So, do you think the 'Origins of life' arc is still happening and will finally show the gas giants doing the late heavy bombardment of water to the rocky planets?
