The slur A (interpretation in context)

The slur of GE (→FEEE)

When read literally, the slur of A  ends over the semiquaver f2. In our opinion, the phrasing aspect of that slur is an argument that points to its inaccurate notation. For our main text we assume the slur reaching the 2nd beat of bar 10, as Chopin clearly wrote two bars earlier. In GE (→FEEE) the slur ends even earlier, which is surely not implied by the notation of A.
