No slur in A (→GE1→FE→EE)

A curved line added in GE2 (→GE3)

The editors' suggestion

The lack of a slur in authentic sources may, in our opinion, be considered an inaccuracy of notation of this Mazurka – hence our proposition to supplement it. The reviewers GE2 (→GE3) apparently had the same motivation, but instead of repeating Chopin's slur as in  A (e.g. in bar  3), they gave its distorted version from GE1.
