No mark in CLI, EE2 & GE3 (→GE4GE5)

Long accent in Ap, FEcor & EE3 (→EE4)

 in FE (→GE1GE2

According to us, the mark written by Chopin in FEcor is a long accent, same as in analogous bar 17. An unequivocal long accent is also in Ap. In FE (→GE1GE2) the mark was interpreted as  hairpins, which, in this case, cannot be considered as an inaccuracy. In EE2 and GE3 (→GE4GE5) the sign was omitted, whereas in EE3 (→EE4) a long (!?) accent was added.
