a in FE

Lack of the f note in FE is a possible mistake – it is hard to assume that Chopin performed a correction here and did not notice both the missing  before the crotchet and the mistake in the previous bar.

b. 85

composition: Op. 25 No 10, Etude in B minor

No indication in GC (→GE1), FE & EE

rit. in GE2 (→GE3)

[rit.] suggested by the editors
..

For the third time (after bar 45 and 65) Chopin did not add the rit. indication. According to us, it is an oversight, hence in the main text we suggest adding this indication. A respective revision was performed already in GE2 (→GE3).
