No marking in GC (→GE) & EE

in FE

Our variant suggestion

The  indication was most probably added by Chopin in a proofreading of FE. In the main text we give it in brackets due to its absence in the basic source (GC) and broader context of dynamic differences in the entire middle section of the Etude – see bars 17-19.
