discovered that one of the assumptions of prior mathematicians was wrong

They wound up teaching him some math theory, which he began to explore as a means of unwinding after a hard day at work.

Sort of like, after a hard day at work developing warp drive, relaxing in the evening by deciphering Linear A ("Minoan").

Now, de Grey has eliminated the possibility of four colors as the solution.

It was commonly known as “The Four Color Problem,” with four conjectured as the minimum number of colors mapmakers could use to represent countries so that no two adjacent countries would have the same color.

Guess now it will be known as “The Five Color Problem.”

The Hadwiger-Nelson problem came about when Edward Nelson and Hugo Hadwiger wondered about the smallest number of colors necessary to color all of the points on a graph, with no two connected points using the same color.

Edward Nelson and Hugo Hadwiger had WAAAAAY too much time on their hands....................
