So I think these spots may be Extrafloral nectaries (EFNs).
Plant has continued to grow very well, no spots on new growth, though there are pinpoints that look suspect.

Here is picture of old leaf with spots and 14x zoom.

There are some awesome looking aerial roots on the newer growth (I love the texture Lovey dubby ). I am thinking of propagating from these, should I bury them in soil or cut and bury? A lot of articles to water propagate but if there are such strong roots is that necessary?
