Lack of the b2 tie is certainly the engraver's oversight.

In A Chopin omitted the accent's sign, which was recreated in GE. A short accent was added in the next editions from GE2, as well as in FE and EE. We give the long accent after the analogous place in A in bar 12.

The beginning of the slur in A is unclear: probably it should start from the 2nd quaver. In GE and EE the slur begins from the sustained c2. FE continues the slur from bar 93.
