According to us, the absence of pedalling indications in bars 5-6 in GC (→GE) and FE does not mean that the bars are to be performed without pedal. The deletions of the pedalling signs, visible in GC in bar 5 (as well as in bars 33, 35-36 and 47-48) prove Chopin's striving for simplicity rather than the will to differentiate the performance, e.g., bars 1-2 (with pedal) and 5-6 (without pedal). Therefore, we consider the indications of EE in the discussed bars to be valid, yet due to their absence in the remaining sources, in the main text we give them in brackets.
