Slur in A

No slur in FE (→GE,EE)

The lack of slur to the bottom voice of the R.H. is almost certainly an arbitrary decision of the engraver of FE1, who, aiming at a faithful reproduction of the graphic layout of A (the dots and slur over the notes, between the R.H. voices), was not able to fit the slur in a legible manner.
