How often does someone produce work that is normally taught to people who are older than the person who discovered it?

Euler was 41 when he discovered his famous identity, the kind of thing people learn in school.

Even Newton was 21 when he invented calculus, the sort of stuff that you might find late teens learning.

Galois by a couple of years? He died at 20, and I suppose they teach that stuff sometime mid uni?
