"it is not for individual believers to limit the sphere of the Guardian's authority, or to judge when they have to obey the Guardian and when they are free to reject his judgment."
It is also written:
"The infallibility of the Guardian is confined to matters which are related strictly to the Cause and interpretation of the teachings..."
These are just the words being discussed on this list.
Now, it seems that the assumption has been (but I have not been following too closely) that the sphere of the Guardian's authority and the sphere of his infallibility coincide. Is there any reason to think so? My off the cuff expectation is that they don't.
Regards
William
