b. 68-69

Slur in GC (interpretation) & GE2mar (→GE2)

Slur in GE1 & FE3 (→FE4,FE5)

Slurs in EE

The analysis of all four analogous places (bars 14-16, 22-24, 68-70 and 76-78) leads to a conclusion that the slur in GE1 and the same slur added in the proofreading of FE3 (→FE4,FE5) are probably inaccurate. In turn, the remaining two versions may be considered to be authentic – they are two most justified interpretations of the notation of GC. In the main text we give the version of EE, whose accordance with Chopin's idea is, according to us, most likely.
In FE1 (→FE2) there are no slurs at all, which is a patent error.

End of slur in GC, literal reading (→GE1)

End of slur in GC (contextual interpretation→GE2marGE2) & FE3 (→FE4,FE5) & EE

..

In GC, same as in bar 16 (bar 70 is only marked as its repetition), the end of the slur may be interpreted in two ways. In the main text, we give a more likely, conventional interpretation of this detail, present in the majority of the editions – only in GE1 the end of the slur was reproduced literally, whereas in FE1 (→FE2) the slur in bars 69-70 was totally overlooked.

 in GC

 in FE (→EE)

No sign in GE1

 in GE2mar (→GE2)

..

The  signs in GC and FE may be considered to be equal variants. Due to the reasons discussed in bar 16, in the main text we give the version of FE. The absence of the sign in GE1 is a clear mistake, inaccurately (arbitrarily) corrected in the subsequent GE.

b. 70-78

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt III

..

In [A] (→GC,FE) Chopin overlooked the bass clef at the end of bars 70 and 78. The signs were added in GE and EE.

b. 72-80

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt III

..

Same as in bars 18 and 26, in GC (→GE1) and FE (→EE1) there are no naturals raising g2 to g2 at the beginning of bars 72 and 80 (both or one). Chopin's oversight was corrected in EE1 in bar 72, whereas in EE2 and GE2mar (→GE2) in both bars.
