In A the only accidental before the 1st chord in the R.H. is the cautionary  before e2. From the musical point of view, the version with d3 would be possible, yet a comparison with analogous bar 425 and a  of d3 added – probably by Chopin – already in GE1 (→FE→EE, →GE2) prove Chopin's mistake. Chopin committed the same mistake in a similar context in bar 423.
In the main text we omit the unjustified  before e2.

..

A features a cautionary  before e3 in the last triplet, yet the necessary  lowering d3 to d3 is missing. A flat was added already in GE1 (→FE→EE, →GE2), however, no source removed the superfluous .

b. 504-508

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III

..

In A Chopin wrote naturals before the last note in the bar in four places – e and e1 in bar 504, E in bar 505 and e3 in bar 508. Not only did GE1 repeated these signs, but it also added corresponding naturals in the R.H. in bars 505 and in the L.H. in bar 508. The unnecessary signs were removed in FE (→EE) and partially also in GE2 (only in bar 508).
