Wedge & dot in A

2 dots in GE (→FE,IE) & EE2

No marks in EE1

Viewed in isolation, the staccato mark over the e crotchet visible in A could be considered a dot or a wedge. The unambiguous wedges next to the three following bass notes provide a clear argument for a wedge also in this place. In GE (→FE,IE) the mark was adjusted to the dot over the chord on the 4th crotchet of this bar.
The absence of the marks in EE1 is due to the engraver's mistake, corrected in EE2.
