In FES and FEJ the runs of the L.H. were reduced to four last notes, which were entrusted with the value of a semiquaver. It is undoubtedly a facilitation aiming at possibilitating an amateur performance of the Etude to the technically less advanced pianists. As in both places FES includes Chopin fingering, concerning the original, full version of these passages, we consider the introduced facilitations as the ossia più facile versions and we include them in the form of variants of the basic text of these sources.
The notation of FEJ is of a more draft nature, transferring only the general idea of this facilitation. It is probably the reason of leaving the a1 note in the last chord in the R.H. in bar 24, which is gauche from the piano and sound point of view.
