No tie to a in FE (→EE1)

a tied in GE & EE2

Our variant suggestion

The sustaining of a as shown in GE is probably authentic, as there is no special reason for a revision here. On the other hand, the version of FE (→EE) is probably authentic as well, so in our main text we leave the choice to the performer.
