Slurs in A, contextual interpretation

Slurs in A (literal reading→FE)

One slur in GC (→GE) & EE

Nothing indicates that the continuous slur in GC (→GE) and EE corresponds to Chopin's intention. However, the range of the slur that ends in this bar is open to question in A. In the editors' opinion Chopin probably meant a slur encompassing the whole first half of the bar, and not only reaching the first note in the upper voice – see slurs in similar context in bars 38 and 40.
