According to us, the slur in the L.H. in bars 125-126, present in GE1 (→FE→EE), could have been added by Chopin. It is indicated by corrections of the slurs in the R.H. – if it were Chopin who ordered to combine the slurs in the R.H. at the transition between those bars, he could have also added a slur in the L.H., as if to emphasise that the one-bar slurs from bars 121-124 are no more valid here. EE added also a slur in bars 127-128 (after the slur the edition has in the R.H.). The slurring of both hands was homogenised also in GE2. In the main text we preserve the notation of A, since the slurs of EE and GE2 are certainly arbitrary, whereas the slur added in GE1, even if it comes from Chopin, is probably to be related to the corrections of the erroneous slurs in the R.H.
