Pedalling in A (→GE2→GE3)

No pedal marks in GE1 (→FE→EE)

The editors'  alternative proposition

 

In A (→GE2→GE3),  is placed after the 3rd crotchet. In GE1 (→FE→EE), pedal marks were entirely omitted, which is definitely an error. In our opinion, the notation of A may be inaccurate, that is why we propose earlier pedal release as in analogous bars 13, 37, 45.
