The missing arpeggios in the editions is most probably a result of distraction of the engraver of FE (the marks were added in EE in bar 46).

..

In A Chopin did not check the notation of accidentals in these bars. In each of them the  returning c4 in the 4th chord is missing, as well as the flats returning e1 in the 5th chord and b3 in the last one. In FE (→GE,EE) all necessary accidentals were added, same as cautionary naturals before c1 and flats before b. In FE, however, the  raising e3 to e3 in bar 49 was overlooked, which was corrected in GE and EE, as well as in FED. Moreover, we add a cautionary  before a2 in bar 49; the accidental was already added in GE and EE4 together with a less justified cautionary  before a.
