In EE and FE the indication cresc. was placed under the hairpin mark . This is probably the revision introduced by editors, who could fear that the authentic notation (i.e. cresc. within the hairpin) preserved in GC and GE would prove illegible in print. Moreover, in FE the scope of the cresc. is delimited with dashes stretching until the end of bar 207, which seems to be a misunderstanding (cf. bar 211). As our main text we reproduce the authentic notation of GC (→GE), so characteristic of Chopin.
