Separate slurs in A (→GE) & EE

Continuous slur in FE

Chopin would encompass rests within phrases with a slur a number of times, e.g. in bar 245 and 249. However, this is not that kind of situation, hence the continuous FE slur is almost certainly a mistake, perhaps resulting from the inaccurate slurs of [FC]. It was considered a mistake already in EE. In the main text we give the unequivocal A slurs (→GE).
Similarly, in the next bar.
