Can someone educate me about this lens defect? Would you buy a lens that had it?

I'm wondering what xauses the little spots you can see in the front section but not in the rear section? I have seen even more obvious examples than this described as EX++++. How much effect does it have on picture quality and would you buy a lens with this?

Goole search “Schneideritis “. It affects Fuji lenses too.

It won't affect image quality. If the price was right I would buy one with this condition without hesitating.
