Variant suggestion of the editors

Both asterisk marks  appearing in the sources are definitely authentic. Chopin wrote the version of FE (asterisk in bar 171) probably later than the version of EE and GC (asterisk in bar 172), yet there are no premises to consider it as definitive. That is why in the main text we give both pedalling alternatives as variants.
