Staccato dot in GC

No mark in FE (→EE) & GE

It is not certain whether the dot, visible in GC near the bottom note of the 1st octave in the bar, is a staccato dot or an insignificant ink fleck. The sign is absent in all other sources, which, however, cannot be considered to be a conclusive argument. In the main text we include the dot, as the staccato articulation results here in a natural way from the piano texture, as well as due to the similarly marked chord at the beginning of bar 91.
