In A staccato dots are written over all semiquavers in the R.H. However, GE1 and subsequent editions overlooked the first of them, and it cannot be excluded that it was Chopin's proofreading. In GE2 the 12 dots were repeated under the part of the L.H., which is only a formal intervention, since dots (and slurs) in the Chopin notation are certainly binding for both hands.
