c1 in GC (→GE), EE1 & EE3

No c1 in FE & EE2

The missing c1 note in FE – provided that it is not an error of the engraver – seems to be the original version, cf. bar 47. Lack of traces of its deletion reduces the likelihood of removing this note by Chopin almost to none. The note was removed – under the influence of FE – in EE2, in order to be reintroduced in EE3, this time on the basis of GE.
