 in A (→GE1)

 in FE (→EE) and GE2 (→GE3)

The mark   in A (→GE1) reaches the crotchet g1. In FE (→EE) it was reproduced inaccurately, its extent shortened by a quaver. A similar change was introduced in GE2 (→GE3); perhaps the ink blot at the end of the hairpins in A was interpreted as their shortening by Chopin.
