Chopin's intention of providing all bass notes with staccato dots remains beyond any doubt, despite the fact that in A the last dot is missing (or it is written in an unclear manner). It is FE and GE2 (→GE3) that include the totally correct notation in this respect. In the remaining editions, the notation is more or less inaccurate – GE completely omits the dots in these bars, while EE puts them only next to a few notes, rather accidentally (one dot was omitted in each of the following bars: 1-3 and 5-6).
