To me your mentioned spine size relative to the leaves, seems to be OK in the images as per description in Flora of China <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=200023700> below: Middle cauline leaves sessile, oblanceolate, 15-20 × 3-9 cm, pinnatipartite, semi amplexicaul; segments ca. 10 pairs, ovate to elliptic, with unequal triangular teeth with 1-2 mm lateral spinules and a 3-5 mm apical spine, basal teeth sometimes spiniform. Upper cauline leaves similar but ovate to narrowly elliptic, segments or teeth with a 5-10 mm apical spine.
