In A (→FC) there are no naturals before the crotchets ending the five-note groups (a2, a1 and a). Through a proof copy of FE, this mistake also found its way to EE1 (in FE the accidentals were added in the last phase of proofreading). The naturals are also present in GE and EE2 (→EE3).

In FE, there is no  raising c3 to c​​​​​​​3. The patent mistake was corrected in GE and EE. In turn, the missing  restoring g3, necessary in this context, even as a cautionary accidental, was added only in GE.

No accidental in GE
..

In FE (→EE), the sharp is placed over the grupetto mark. The patent mistake was corrected in GE by removing the erroneous mark. In the main text, we move the  to under the grupetto, since c​​​​​​​2 as the bottom note of the grupetto seems to be more natural than c2, and the intended mark  () having been misplaced is more likely than the erroneous one having been added in a place where it was totally absent.

b. 588

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In EE1 the bottom note of the L.H. crotchet is an erroneous A1. The mistake was initially also in FE, in which, however, it was corrected during the proofreading, perhaps by Chopin's orders. The mistake was also rectified in EE2 (→EE3).

In FE (→GE1→GE2, →EE1→EE2), there is no accidental before the penultimate semiquaver. The undoubtedly necessary ​​​​​​​ was added only just in GE3 and EE3.
