Heq5 taper bearings

My mount squeaked a bit at one point so I dismantled the dec axis and regreased with a worm adjustment. All the bearing looked good except that I notice that the bottom taper bearing grease looked a bit brown and ordinary and also that the taper bearing itself could be dismantled with two fingers to expose the loose rollers. Is this standard? I don’t think the taper bearing in my other mount comes apart, only pops out of the cone. This one can fall into all of its individual pieces.
