In AI there is no slur, which in this case undoubtedly results from the working nature of the manuscript.

b. 46

composition: Op. 10 No 4, Etude in C♯ minor

..

In AI there are no naturals before the 4th and 12th semiquavers (in both hands). The signs in the 1st half of the bar are of cautionary significance, yet in the 2nd half of the bar they are necessary. Moreover, the  lowering d1 to d1 was omitted. All the aforementioned signs appear in FE (→GE,EE).
