In EE and IE there are no accents on both the first and second beat of b. 207. In A there are no accents on the second beat of b. 206 or the first beat of b. 207. In all other sources every beat of bars 206-207 has accents.

Moving the moment of the slurs' division is a typical inaccuracy of GE1 (→FE→EE), corrected in GE2. Similarly a bar further.

In later impressions of GE1a, a retouch was performed in the area encompassing the part of the R.H. in this bar. The reengraved slur erroneously leads only to the last note in the bar, although in bar 207 (on a new page) there is an ending of this slur.

The moment of beginning the  hairpin in A intended by Chopin is unclear. The sign starts clearly before the bar line of bar 206, the first one on a new page, which suggests that it began still in the previous bar; however, it does not allow to determine the precise location of the beginning of the sign. GE1 (→FE→EE) considered it simply an inaccuracy, which could be right. GE2 adopted a solution similar to the one adopted to the main text – beginning of the sign after the last note in bar 205.
