So we do not boast. Paul's work was to lay foundations. He did not intrude on the work of the other apostles. See Romans 15:20 and note. It may be that the false teachers accused Paul of intruding on their work, when it was in fact they themselves who were the intruders! That we may be able. These problems are forcing Paul to concentrate his efforts on them, and neglect other things that need to be done. When their faith grows, he can leave them in the care of their ordinary teachers, and go on to other fields of work.
