I'm not sure about this but here is what i think. The sharp change in temperature could have caused cyanobacteria to not photosynthesize. Which would have allowed for a atmosphere with much less oxygen. Without cyanobacteria biodiversity wouldn't have occurred allowing for oxygen-intolerant organisms to thrive. This would've created a much different world we live in today.

Again i have no idea if I'm right. This is just what i think.
