Slurs to bar 248 in GE2

Shortening the slur in the editions is certainly a result of inaccuracy of the engraver of GE1. In turn, in the case of the addition of a slur for the L.H., Chopin's proofreading cannot be entirely excluded. In GE2 both slurs were preserved, extending both in accordance with the notation of the slur in the R.H. in A.
