[a tempo] suggested by the editors

According to us, the chromatic descending scale must be performed a tempo. It is possible that Chopin had to be satisfied with the marking leggieremente, which suggests a change of approach – the passages in bars 311 and 315, in spite of the very neutral dynamics, are not associated with "lightness." The ritenuto appearing in bar 324 may be considered an additional argument for changing the tempo in bar 317.
