No accidental in CLI & Ap

 before a1 in FE (→GE,EE) 

Chopin added a cautionary  before a1 still in the handwritten base text for FE (→GE,EE). In the situation in which the opening phrase of the Etude appears already for the third time, written from a new line of the text, the sign seems to be superfluous.
