Lack of the  returning b2 on the penultimate semiquaver is most probably an inaccuracy of notation of CLI. Chopin added the accidental in FEcor.

The third of CLI, impossible from the pianistic point of view, is certainly a result of the copyist's distraction, who forgot to erase the erroneously written d1.

composition: Op. 10 No 2, Etude in A minor

..

In CLI there are no naturals returning a1 and d2. The accidentals were also originally absent in FEcor, in which Chopin added both these two naturals and a third one returning f2 on the last semiquaver in the lower voice. Eventually, both FE (→GE,EE) and Ap have the correct notation.

Lack of the  returning b2 on the penultimate semiquaver is most probably an inaccuracy of CLI's notation. Chopin may have written the accidental already in the handwritten base text for FE.
