No slurs in A

Slur in FE (→GE,EE)

Our suggestion

The slur over the motif in the R.H. in bars 22-23 was probably added by Chopin at the time of proofreading FE (→GE,EE). According to us, the lack of a similar addition over the first motif is an inaccuracy of notation, hence in the main text we suggest a suitable addition.
