Slur from 2nd quaver in A & GE2

Slur from first quaver in GE1 (→FE→EE)

Beginning a slur from the 1st quaver – clearly contrary to the notation of A – is a typical example of the routine approach of the engraver of GE1 (→FE→EE) to the issue of slurring (see the characterization of GE1). GE2 returned the notation compliant with the manuscript.
