The absence of the first slur is most probably Chopin's oversight. The slur added in GE1 (→FE) probably comes from Chopin; however, it could have been inaccurately reproduced, and it is the slur of GE2 that is compliant with the composer's intention. The slur of EE is a result of a unifying revision of the slurs on the basis of the part of the R.H. In the main text we give two slurs modelled after the slurs in the R.H.
