The slurs in the L.H., added in EE and GE2, cannot be authentic, since Chopin did not participate in the creation of those editions. The need to add slurs in the L.H. could have been provoked by the slurs added in GE1 in bar 256.

All minor differences in the range of this sign appearing in the editions are certainly of random nature. In this case, the sign certainly means a "very long" accent, hence shifts both in GE1 and GE2 distorted its sense.

A possibility that Chopin added such slurs in the L.H. in bar 256 in the proofreading of GE1 has to be firmly rejected. However, he could have added there the same slur as in the R.H., which was implemented by the engraver in a distorted form. It allows to confer a certain likeliness of authenticity on the slur of GE2. In the main text, we stick to the notation of A, since the need to perform the part of the L.H. with the same phrasing and articulation as in the R.H. is obvious here. The slurs of EE, being a completed version of the erroneous slurs of GE1 (→FE), are certainly arbitrary.

There is no  before the top note of the 7th third in A. The patent oversight was corrected already in GE1 (→FEEE, →GE2).
