This isn’t particularly interesting as a counterpoint, as there’s a known lag between creativity and recognition. To take the easiest example, Einstein published his awarded idea at 26, but he wasn’t awarded until 42.

Is that supposed to back or counter my claim?

I haven't dug in, just noticed it's age at the time of award, not time of achievement.

Eg Einstein early 20s for most of his stuff, early 30s for GR. Awarded in his 40s.

As you can see, people get award in rather old age. Not many geniuses in their thirties, that made great achievement in their twenties.

That's when they got the prize, not when they did what they won it for.
