Continuous slur in AI

Separate slurs in A (→FE→GE,EE)

Starting a new slur in bar 84 could have been related to a presence of an irregular group, since Chopin would generally instinctively encompass them with a separate slur. Therefore, the continuous slur of AI may be, according to us, considered an equal variant.
