Issues : Inaccurate slurs in A

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

Four-quaver slurs in A (→FE)

Three-quaver slurs in GC (→GE) & EE
..

In A, the first slur in each bar clearly reaches the 4th quaver, but only FE reproduced it that way. Both the copyist and the engraver in EE found the notation of A inaccurate, and lead the slurs only to the 3rd quaver.
