Staccato dot in GE

In the main text we include the revision of GE, since an accidental oversight of a staccato dot in this bar seems almost certain, since it was already from bar 31 that Chopin started providing all bass notes held with pedal with dots – in FC or FE or in both (cf. bars 31-39, 49-53 and 55-56). As this rule naturally follows from the pianistic texture, the only exception in the form of the discussed bar is totally unjustified.
