My feeling is the solitariness/hermitness in these cases is less about withdrawal, and more about finding appropriate situations to develop the inner nature of self.
It's entirely possible to have a well developed and activated solar plexus, and not to have it invoked.
But usually in the cases of 'retreating' or 'disowning society', that is a kind of blockage in yellow ray which is polarizing in neither way. Those individuals are usually rejecting society - or the potentials and possibilities inherent in social interaction.
Yellow Ray blockages (rejection) would typically be overshyness, non-responsiveness to interactions (autism), over-self-consciousness in social settings (anxiety), etc etc.

But to answer your question, I do think there are cases of 'well balanced monks' who seek a certain amount of isolation to cultivate the inner spirit. Usually their 'benevolence' towards society, is that they are looking for some insight or realization to bring back to others.
