Change from Vivace in Ap to Allegro in FE (→GE,EE) may have been related to the fact that the next etude, the Etude in E major, had originally Vivace as its tempo. The number difference in the metronome marking is not significant (144-138), yet the change of the used rhythmic value draws attention. It may have been related to the change of the time signature, although FEcor proves that the changes took place at different time:
Chopin would have had to introduce a possible change from
