d2 in AI, A (→GE), FE & EE

b1 in CDP

The version of CDP may be a common mistake, yet it can also prove that Chopin performed the visible in A correction of this note from b1 to d2 only after the copy had been prepared. The note was changed by Chopin also in AI, where d2 is added most probably in pencil (also on the last semiquaver in the bar).
