The staccato mark in A, despite its smallness, is clearly prolonged (vertically). Both Fontana in FC and the engraver of FE regarded it as a wedge. GE1 and EE changed it to a dot, which can be considered acceptable, taking into account the fact that both passage E major sections feature only dots except for this place, including in analogous b. 438 & 446. GE2 (→GE3) did not include the mark, which could easily be considered an oversight if it were not for the dot in analogous b. 446, which was also left out. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Errors in GE , EE inaccuracies , Wedges |

In EE and GC there is no bass clef at the end of the bar. Given that both editions are the same, we may suspect Chopin to have made this mistake in [A1]. Since the chords of RH in b. 348 are notated on two staves, lack of the clef does not pose any problems for text interpretation (in EE b. 348 is printed as the new line of the text with the right clef at the beginning, which minimises the consequences of this omission). The clef was supplemented in GE. category imprint: Source & stylistic information issues: GE revisions , EE inaccuracies , Errors of GC |

The mark over the 3rd beat may be interpreted as an accent – long in FE (→GE) and short in EE – or a short diminuendo hairpin. However, the latter is highly unlikely from the practical point of view, since after the previous category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , EE inaccuracies |
augmenting a to a
in b. 342, which is obvious inaccuracy given 
, performing this motif 
could easily deprive it of clarity. Due to this reason, we assume that the marks represent accents.
