The naturals raising g to g in the chord in the L.H. and g2 to g2 in the R.H. are not carefully written in the autographs – the sign in the L.H. is not present in any of them, while the sign in the R.H. is included only in AII and AIII. The signs were added in the proofreading of FE (→GE,EE), probably by Chopin.

Chopin's indicating the pedalling in AI in bar 66 is undoubtedly related to the fact of playing the bass note on the 1st beat of the bar, present in this autograph, which makes the figure of the accompaniment in this bar to be closely analogous to the previous ones. However, the  sign in bar 67 poses a mystery, as it is difficult to indicate a possible scenario leading to the creation of this mistake. Therefore, we suggest both possibilities of correcting the notation, giving priority to the one in which we consider the notation to be unfinished.
