In A (→FE1EE3) there is no  returning b1 on the penultimate semiquaver. It is undoubtedly an oversight, corrected in FE2, GE and EE4.

In A (→FE1) there are no naturals returning c2 on the 10th and 15th semiquavers. The composer's oversight is completely clear, yet in FE2 was added only on the 4th beat. The revisers of GE and EE correctly completed the text.

No accidental in A (→FEGE1)

 in EE & GE2 (→GE3GE4)

Our suggestion

..

Before the 2nd semiquaver of the last group, there is no accidental in A (→FEGE1), which formally gives c2. A few accidentals, overlooked in A in bars 57-60, allow for assuming Chopin's inattention also in this case. In the entire 4-bar section, in the parts of both hands he used only the notes of the key of F major as transitional notes (second semiquavers of each group). Deviation from this rule in the last figure, based on a chord which directly introduces this key, would be completely incomprehensible. The natural was added in EE and GE2 (→GE3GE4).

The flat returning b3 at the end of the 1st half of the bar, omitted in A probably by accident, was added in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE).
