The crescendo starting earlier in FE (→EE) could be explained by, e.g. Chopin's correction in [FC] or by both variants having been added independently to A and to the copy (or at the stage of proofreading FE1). In later appearances of this phrase (bars 156-158 and 236-238) in all sources crescendo begins earlier than here (as marked by Chopin in A). Due to this fact, in the main text we suggest a variant solution, including the FE version, with a possibility of crescendo beginning later (as in A).
