Long accents in A

 in GE

Accent &  in FE (→EE)

The clearly long accents of A were reproduced in GE (→FE→EE) as  hairpins, whereas in FE (→EE) the first sign actually looks like a long accent and the second one was extended over the entire group of four semiquavers. The changes can be qualified as inaccurate.
