Lack of the ties sustaining the bass minims in FE is probably a result of lack of space at the bottom of the page. The revisers of GE2 (→GE3→GE4→GE5) and EE4 guessed Chopin's intention accurately.

In bar 51, the sources do not have a slur over a group of four L.H. semiquavers. In the editors' opinion it is Chopin's oversight. In bar 52, only A has the slur comprising 6 semiquavers, which is probably due to the carelessness of the engraver of FE.
