Default spots on pony tail palm

Nolina recurvata? Closest picture I can find.

10 year old.

Full screaming hot morning and afternoon sun indoor houseplant (atrium
at a College) Yellow spots on old growth, no pots on new growth. Yellow
spots are block shaped like the parallel veination. Spots range in size
from 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch.

No thrips, mites, mealy or scale. Minimal fert. in spring. Dishsoap,
alcohol and lemonjuice to wash leaves occasionally.

Whats its problem? Any ideas?

Thanks for your advice

Beaucarnea recurvata is the plant's correct name but many horticultural
refernces place it in Nolina in ignorance of the botanical difference
between the two genera.

No true Nolina species form a caudex (even the caulescent species) and the
fruit structure is very different.
