b. 179-180

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

 in EE

No sign in GC (→GE)

 in FE

Editors' variant suggestion
..

Just like in bars 171-172, both asterisk marks  (in bar 179 and 180) are definitely authentic and in our opinion they may be treated as variants.

b. 180-183

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

Slur in EE and FE
 
..

In GC (→GE) the slur ends above the last chord of bar 182. This is most probably an innacuracy, as in bars 166 and 174.

b. 187-188

No pedalling in EE, GC (→GE) & FE

We suggest adding pedal marks, as in similar bars 231-232.

b. 187-191

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

No L.H. slur in EE, GC & FE

Slur in GE
..

Just like in preceding bars, a slur in the L.H. was arbitrarily added in GE, with the scope corresponding to the scope of the authentic slur in the R.H.
