In GE1 (→FE1,EE1EE2) there are no accidentals to the fifth on the 2nd quaver in the bar, which would result in B-f. The oversight was corrected in GE2 (→GE3,FESB), FE2 and EE3.

In GE (→FE,EE) the e1 crotchet is provided with two augmentation dots, which could have been caused by the spot in A, resembling a second dot. It must be a mistake, since this e1 note is continued by the d1 quaver, falling on the 4th quaver in the bar. In FESB this note was placed on one stem with the g1 quaver, which changed its value to a double dotted quaver. It was probably an attempt at correcting the excessive rhythmic value of this note.

In all sources the bass f is provided with a wrong rhythmic value – a minim in AsI and a dotted minim in A (→GEFE,EE). The mistake could have resulted from copying the notation of the bassoon II part, in which this note is played from the beginning of the bar and is provided with such a value – a minim in AsI and a dotted minim in GEork (→FEork). In the main text we give the correct value, written down in accordance with the division of the beams of the bottom voice on the top stave in A.

The version of GE1 (→FE1) is almost certainly a Terzverschreibung error, which was confirmed by the Chopinesque proofreading of FE2 (→EE) restoring the version of A.

In the main text we preserve the unambiguous notation of the rhythm of A. Moving a semiquaver outside the last quaver of the triplet in the bottom voice is an arbitrary action characteristic of GE (→FEEE). The Breitkopf & Härtel publishing house would consistently apply a "mathematical" layout to such groups, denying the currency of the convention used by Chopin even in these places where the notation resulting from such a layout (as the discussed one) was absurd from the pianistic point of view, cf. the Nocturne in C minor, op. 27 no. 1, bars 5-13.
