The type of accents written in AI under the semiquavers in the R.H. is not clear. Several clearly longer signs previously visible on this page of the manuscript allow to consider short accents to be more plausible. The accents in FE (→GE,EE) – separately for the L.H. and over the crotchets in the right hand – are short, yet, according to us, the mere fact of separating the accents may mean that Chopin wanted to differentiate between their quality.
