I don't see how it could be considered anything other than a negative trait. Have you ever seen a spider that is a bad spinner? It is very disturbing to watch. I may be able to find a video when I get home of one of my friends spiders spinning. I would consider his to be about a 5 on a scale of 1-10 as far as spinning goes. I'll post it if I can find it.

As for your friend, I don't now what his problem is or know how bad the problem you mention is, but if it was a genetic disorder and would be passed on to his children 100% of the time like the wobble is passed down in spiders I would think it would be better for him not to have children. I know if it were me I would prefer not to have children than to pass on known genetic problems to my kids. I would just adopt.
