Eight staccato signs on the first crotchets in these bars (in both hands) are clearly wedges in A (only the sign in the L.H. in bar 30 could be considered a dot, in another context). In spite of this, the editions reproduced them as dots, which is a simplification characteristic of the engraver of GE1, uncorrected in any of the remaining editions. The absence of the sign in the R.H. in bar 31 is a patent oversight of GE1 (→FE→EE).
