This is purely guessing on my part. however after a rereading of the post from Merovius where to me this sorta "stuck out"...

***Quote:Also, the cedar sleeves on Queen Bee's and other Fuente products are infamous for mold growth due to their lack of breathability. I personally leave all of mine on but removing them may help in the future if you absolutely have to run closer to 70rh.***End of Quote.

At present I/ve only a few My Fathers that are in Cedar sleeves. But all cigars I've had that were encased in the cedar wraps, have, if stored for any decent lenght of time,felt softer,little less solid in the area covered by the cedar,compared to that which the Cedar didn't (protect)cover.
Other, non cedar wrapped cigars that spent the same time in the humidor felt a bit firmer over the entire lenght of the cigar.
Now...here's the Guessing part...and it's no more than a wild guess,thus as likely wrong as not.

My thinking is that the noted *softness* may be due to the protective cedar wrap.
And,THAT in time would surely mean a greater chance of mold developing there.

Given the extremely small chance that I could at any time be right about anything, you are best advised to totally ignore this post.
