No slur in A, probable interpretation

Slur end in A (possible interpretation) & GE (→FE→EE)

The slur, written in A in previous bars, when interpreted literally, does not exceed bar 204. However, the notation is ambiguous, so the slur reaching the beginning of this bar can be considered an alternative interpretation of A. The version with the slur ending in bar 205 is included in all editions.
