The change of the continuous slur of A to overlapping slurs in the editions may be, according to us, a result of the proofreading of the original inaccurate slurring of GE1 – Chopin could have e.g. added the first slur, if initially only the second had been printed. In such a situation, the slurs of GE (→FE→EE) could be regarded as an equal variant of notation. However, in the main text we leave the undoubtedly authentic version of A.
