Dear Grateful,
The Torah defines and redefines our activities ad infinitum. What seems like a universal halachah to the everyday Talmid Chohom, is actually a panorama of responses for a Master of Shas. This is demonstrated through the biographies of Reb Chaim Brisker and Rav Meir Shapiro. Even though they were fundamentally meticulous with themselves, they were extremely patient and caring with the well being of others. To an extant that seemed to go against halachah in the eyes of the simple folk. To reach that point of erudition in Shas, requires one to drop their own preconceived notions even in regards to themselves.
