While proofreading FE1, Chopin changed and clarified the articulation indications in the entire meno mosso fragment. The main change concerned including the 2nd half of the penultimate bar under a slur ending each of the four-bar sections, at the same time deleting staccato dots under an extended slur (bars 71-72, 75-76, 79-80, 87-88, 91-92, 95-96). Moreover, Chopin corrected a few other places too, striving for a more consistent staccato articulation indication in analogous situations than in A – see bars 70-71. Both FE2 and GE1 repeated the version of FE1 without changes, although GE1 is not free from inaccuracies. In turn, EE and later GE added articulation almost to the shape presented in the main text (not including additional revisions, as in the 2nd half of bar 95 in EE and minor errors). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies , Authentic corrections of FE |

Omission of the staccato dots in the L.H. in the 2nd half of bar 70 is certainly an oversight of the engraver of FE (→GE1). The first two quavers in the L.H. in bar 71 do not have dots also in A, which is probably related to the graphical layout, in which the part of the R.H. is also entirely written on the bottom stave. All these deficiencies were completed in EE and GE2 (→GE3→GE4). category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE , GE revisions |

All dyads in the 2nd half of the bar – in the parts of both hands – are provided with staccato dots in A. Chopin deleted them in the proofreading of FE1 – see the next note. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

In the 1st half of bar 75 Chopin probably considered staccato dots written under the part of the R.H. to be valid also in the left. In the 2nd half of bar 74, omission of the majority of dots in the L.H. in FE is almost certainly a mistake; the only printed dot (over c category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , GE revisions |
