What's happening here?

One of the areoles on this Porfiria coahuilense seedling is prodicing a mass of wool instead of spines. Does anyone know why this might be happening and is it something to worry about?

Member of Somerset branch. I have a diverse mixture of small cacti plus a few larger survivors from a previous collection. I also like Stapeliads, Titanopsis, Anacampseros, and various other succulents. Now proud owner of many self-raised seedlings.
