Wolf: From its context, the Gemara of ‘Mai Ahanu Lan Rabanan’ is not referring to Rabbonim, Roshei Yeshiva etc. that disseminate Torah. It is referring to men that just sit and learn Torah like Kollel men nowadays who then do not necessarily go on to take up any position. That is why the Apikorus says ‘They are learning only for themselves’ and that is the Apikorsus referred to by the OP.
