עת לעשות להי, הפירו תורתך

I love this assessment here, and its extension. This verse read forward tells us one thing, and read backwards (I.e second first) tells us the opposite. So, we learn from this that we should socially flexible, always filling the role that is unfilled the group. If we are in a place where people study lots of Torah, we should tone it down a bit. My question: how does this jive with the teaching from Avot, אל תפרוש מן הציבור?
