Quavers in A (→GE)

Semiquavers in GE1 (→FE→EE)

One can ponder whether Chopin did not try to change the notation of this ornament from small quavers to semiquavers: in bar 7 already in GE1 and here in FE (→EE). It cannot be excluded, yet taking into account the unobvious difference between two notations, we consider an inaccuracy of the engravers to be a more likely explanation of these changes.
