No L.H. slurs in A

2 slurs in GE1 (→FEEE)

1 slur in GE2

The slurs in the L.H. added in GE1 (→FEEE) are most probably inauthentic – the division on the bar line (after the slurs in the R.H.) certainly is not in line with Chopin's intention. Assuming that a possible Chopin proof entry in GE1 was implemented inaccurately, one could consider the slur of GE2 to be in line with his intention. However, it would be then obscure why Chopin did not order to correct the slurs in the R.H. at that time.
