So by extension those who have a deeper understanding of grace should be tolerant of those who impose extra-Biblical standards lest they cause them to take offense and backslide. Until they (the weaker ones) come into a full understanding of grace.
Well said Mizpeh.

LOL,
Paul wasn't tolerant of those who IMPOSED extra biblical standards but he was tolerant of those who had personal convictions and kept them personal. Not only was he tolerant of those with personal convictions, he sought not to offend them.
