The change of  to  is, according to us, an arbitrary revision of GE (or perhaps a simple mistake).

..

The top most note of the chord on the 4th quaver in GE1 (→FE1) is an erroneous b3. The mistake was corrected – most probably by Chopin – in the proofreading of FE2 (→EE). The correct version is also in GE2.

b. 265

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt I

No marking in A

in GE (→FE→EE)
..

One could be looking for Chopin's proofreading in  appearing in the editions. However, according to us, a misunderstanding is more likely – the engraver may have introduced by mistake the marking from the previous bar, or, upon looking at the bottom of the page of ½A, he repeated  written under the double bass part in Morch.

Accents in A & GE2

No marks in GE1 (→FE→EE)
..

There are neither traces of removal nor reasons to remove the accents in the proofreading of GE1, hence their absence is most probably an oversight. The signs were restored in GE2.

c2 in chords in A & GE2

No c2 in GE1 (→FE→EE)
..

The absence of c2 in the chords is almost certainly a result of an oversight of the engraver of GE1 (→FE→EE).
