There is no  lowering G to G at the beginning of the bar in FE (→EE1). This mistake, if committed by Chopin, would prove his anticipatory thinking – modulation to the key of B minor/G major was already determined in the previous bar, hence the use of G could have already been considered obvious (in FE the spaces between the notes suggest that the  before g and maybe even all 3 L.H. flats were added at the time of proofreading). The accidental was added in the remaining editions.
