  b. 89-97

GE (→FE→EE): semiquaver after the last note of the sextuplet

Notation in keeping with Chopin's understanding of such figures

In bars 89, 91-95 & 97 GE (→FE→EE) moved the semiquaver in  beyond the 3rd note of the triplet in the accompaniment, contrary to Chopin's understanding of that figure.
