In A Chopin initially wrote an e-g-c1 chord as the 2nd crotchet, which can be seen under the deletion.

Accent in GE (→FE,EE,IE)

Accent suggested by the editors

In the main text we suggest adding an accent after the previous two passages (bar 267 and 269). The mark was also added in GE (→FE,EE,IE).

b. 272

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

In FE, there is no  raising g1 to g1. This patent inaccuracy could have already been present in the manuscript.

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

b. 272-273

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt II

Slur from bar 272 in GC (literal reading→GE) & FE (→EE)

Slur from bar 273 in GC (probable interpretation)
..

In the editors' opinion, starting the slur from the last crotchet of bar 272 does not conform to Chopin's intention. Three preceding bars are notated in GC only as a repetition of bar 269; the same was certainly true for [A]. In such a situation it seems probable that the slur over bars 273-276 was supposed to encompass only the written out phrase taken from the middle section of the Scherzo.
