On Mondays and Thursdays, nusach ashkenaz begins tachanun with a very long “vehu rachum” and only after that there is nefilas apayim. In contrast, nusach sefard begins this tachanun with nefilas apayim. Consider a person who privately davens nusach sefard, but is the shliach tzibur in a nusach ashkenaz shul. Tefilos that he has to recite aloud, he would do in nusach ashkenaz, but silent things he could say in nusach sefard. Although he would say tachanun silently, it would look very out of place for him to begin tachanun with nefilas apayim.
