“People” need to be better defined. In the case of pure math, “people” are your fellow mathematicians in your specific subfield or adjacent.

The “other” in “people” needs to be there :)
One may cite Grothendieck as counterexamples, but maybe they still only had themselves in their adjacent subfields (at the time they made their most impactful discoveries, anyway)
