As long as the rot doesn't progress, I wouldn't worry about it or would just remove the leaves that have the spots, you just don't want it to get into the stem. I found that when it occurred on the stem though, it would start to get mushy after a few days . The plant will grow new leaves from the growing tip, but I don't know if old leaves would be replaced if they were removed/rotted off. I would monitor the situation and if the rot appears to progress at all, I would remove the leaves.
Regarding the moss pole, you can make it any size you want. I made mine bigger than the plant could handle at the time because as it grew I didn't want to have to try moving it after it got larger. I think it will be happy for at least 2 years on this set up, as I plant to send it up and down the pole as it grows.
I do mist the pole where the roots are in it every day or 2. About once a week I put the whole thing in the shower to really water it, so everything gets soaked.
