Slur from e2 in A

Slur from g2 in GE (→EE,IE)

Tie to b2 in FE

In this case, it seems that there are no reasons to doubt the accuracy of the A slur, which encompasses the three-quaver chromatic linking motif between the phrase that just finished and the surprising G chord in the next bar. Therefore, the earlier starting point of the slur in GE (→EE,IE) must be considered wrong, not to mention the completely arbitrary FE version.
