I am a 50+ quant developer; I have been to thousands of quant/tech interviews over the course of my career. My ratio of offers to job applications is still well under 2%. It is great to see such maturity, independence and practical thinking at such a young age.

If that's what you heard through all of this, you definitely missed the message. He had a supportive environment, him working hard since elementary for academics and mathematics, and developing strong educational and competitive skillets since a young age. "6 weeks of studying hard at 8th grade.", going to math camps, and nonstop hard work around others that challenged him to keep improving. I'm a teacher, and have had several students like him pass through and go to ivy leagues and see the immense amount of work, time, effort, and ideal environment they have around them to thrive. Gifted turns 22 hours into 18 hour grinds. You just don't see it and they are years of hard work ahead, while still outworking. He started 10 years ago and was rewarded now. It's never too late to start. Get grinding with a clear goal and get there, I've seen the most 'ungifted' people get there in regards to success. Which honestly I hate saying as 9/10 'ungiftedness' is a cop out.

23:00 Calculus isn't that complicated if you have a good teacher. Unfortunately, most kids in the US don't have access to the best education, and it also requires a lot of motivation to do Calculus because it's a big jump from Algebra.

This is actually depressing to watch for me. I grew up in a small country town in the south west of Australia. I once got invited to a math summer school (which I declined to hang out with my girlfriend) due to an exceptional score in the Australian National Maths competition (Top 0.03%, and 12 marks higher than my friend who also got top 0.03%). This was the extracuricular maths opportunity I have ever had. I know there may have been more opportunities in major cities in America, but the level of extracuricular activities available, even in Iowa, dwarfs anything that was available here even for the very best students. I ended up not pursing maths, and going back to it in my 30's. I still have some talent for it, but I wish that I'd had the kind of opportunities you talk about when my brain was more neuroplastic. Just thought i'd give you some context. It sounds to me like your glass of maths opportunities is well over half full.
