The notation of A suggests that Chopin wanted to place the  signs after the bar line, hence at the beginning of bars 235 and 237. In GE1 (→FE→EE) it was performed only for the second time, whereas in GE2, which was changed in GE2 to a standard notation with  asterisks at the end of bar 234 and 236.
