No fingering in CLI

3 on c1 in FE (→GE)

4 on c1 in EE

The difference in fingering between the first and the second four-note group of semiquavers, the only one in the entire Etude, raises doubts whether one of the digits – 3 over c1 or 4 over c2 – is not a mistake. It was probably what the reviser of EE (Fontana?) thought, taking the decision to change the digit over c1 from 3 to 4.
