The size of the accents on the 3rd beat of bars 100 and 102 is much larger in A than typical short accents. However, their shape is not the one typical for long accents. A comparison with earlier appearances of that phrase suggests that those accents should be considered short ones, and this is how they were interpreted in GE (→FE→EE). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness issues: Long accents |

We consider the absence of staccato dots under the bass notes A (→GE1→FE→EE) to be Chopin's oversight. These dots were already added in GE2 (→GE3). category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: GE revisions |

The absence of an accent in A (→GE1→FE→EE) seems to be the result of Chopin's oversight; this finds confirmation in the fact that accents are present in the corresponding bars of the other repetitions of that phrase, as well as in analogous bars 100 and 104. A short accent was added in GE2 (→GE3). category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: GE revisions |

In A, Chopin entered a staccato dot on the 2nd beat of the bar, quite far from the note it was meant to refer to; this was probably why the dot was omitted from GE1 (→FE→EE). It was supplemented in GE2 (→GE3). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE |

We consider the lack of the staccato dot under the bass note to be the result of Chopin's accidental omission in A (→GE1→FE→EE). The dot appeared in GE2 (→GE3). category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: GE revisions |
