Without a dot in A (→GE)

A dot in FE (→EE)

The third staccato dot in this bar, appearing in FE (→EE), is most probably a mistake. Notes on which short slurs begin are contrasted in A with staccato-marked notes ending the slurred crotchet pairs. The FE dot would disturb that regularity, with the detriment to the clarity of the entire transition section (bars 52-56).
