How about getting a balance? Sometimes you could hang around a community where you're one of the most competent people around, and at other times you could put yourself in a position where you're a student to most of the other members.
This seems to get the benefit MrMind was describing without the drawback you've identified.
It's hard to argue against balance :-) at this point we're in the "it depends" situation. It could work or it could fail.
However this advice contradicts a heuristic I have: "Try not to spend time surrounded by idiots".
A time-honored heuristic if there ever was one. But the opposite is just as depressing.
You can be happy in a group of peers... or as a teacher.
