It is not clear at all if by leaving the 2nd half of the bar not entirely completed with rhythmic values in the upper voice, Chopin forgot about the dots extending the b1-d2 third, as it was interpreted in FE (→GE,EE). Perhaps he planned to complete the bar with a rest, as in bar 26 (the scope of the figuration did not have to be the only reason for using a rest). We consider this possibility as an alternative solution.
