They're talking about the little green 'spears' all over that nubbin of new growth.

All the new pads are brand new too, just weeks old, the new pads start off just like in your pix. Once those new pads start growing the pad, they start growing all those protuberances which I’m going to say will grow where the spines form.

Here in this pix in red are the baby new pads & growth, but in blue are where (i think) any spines would form.

I’ll watch more closely now and do some experimentation. Maybe @Chubbs the tegu & @EllieMay can test theirs as well.

So.. ur gonna remove them?

 

[Maro2Bear]

So.. ur gonna remove them?

Yes. I’ll remove them on most, but keep a “Control” pad or two. The protuberances on your new pads look like cartoon characters in support of Gumby! Ogh no Mr Bill, you’ve squished us!

 

[Maggie3fan]

So.. ur gonna remove them?

mine don't seem to have a lot of needles, possibly from me getting stuck with them, BUT, don't you think that waiting until the needles have grown out and are kinda dry, then take a wad of newspaper and rub them off. Comes off easy then....

We've had a pretty day but rain on and off. It's 77°f now which is cool for me. This morning I was able to get so much done for all my critters. I even found this cute little multi-tool by Mossy Oak I couldn't resist.

You are correct! What you have in red will be new pads and the blue would be spines.. I have seen the new pads finish but I haven’t seen my new growth make spines yet. Now I hope I don’t have to I knocked them off!
