According to us, the fragmentary A slurs resulted from the R.H. chords having been written on the bottom stave, which made it impossible to lead a continuous slur over the L.H. quavers. Due to the above, in the main text we provide a slur modelled after the analogous bars in the exposition (bars 4-6), in which Chopin was not restricted by lack of space. The A slurs were considered incomplete already by GE (→FE,EE,IE) and supplemented in the easiest possible way while keeping the range of the slurs entered by Chopin.
