In A (→GC,FE) the  raising b1 to b1 is only written before the 8th semiquaver, and there is no raising b to b in the L.H. Chopin wrote in the latter in GC (→GE), it was also added in FE3 and EE. The notation of the R.H. was supplemented in EE and GE, but only EE removed the then superfluous  in the 2nd half of the bar.
