The strength of the emotion expressed determines this - 'Oh, I see' shows mild realization, while 'Oh! Watch out!' conveys urgent surprise - and the punctuation signals that intensity.

Using the right punctuation shows the reader the intended emotional weight - overusing exclamation marks makes writing feel hysterical, while underusing them can make urgent moments feel flat.
