  b. 12-13

No signs in AT & AW

One sign  in CDP

Two signs  in GC (→GE), FE & EE

It is unclear whether according to Chopin diminuendo in these bars was supposed to be divided in two sections or not. In GC and CDP, bar 13 opens a new line of the text, hence it was most probably the same in [A]. In such a situation, two subsequent  or  signs were treated as equal to one, longer hairpins in Chopin's times. As two out of three sources based probably on [A] (GC and EE or FE) have divided signs and only one (CDP) – combined, in the main text we adopt the first notation.
However, most probably these bars, independently from the notation, are supposed to be embraced with one diminuendo wave, as it was unambiguously indicated in analogous bars 31-32.
