Slur in FE (→EE), literal reading

Tie to a1 (contextual interpretation of FE)

No slur/tie in GE

The ambiguous curved line of FE (→EE) combines the last note of bar 443 (c2) with the top note of the first chord in bar 444.  According to us, the most likely interpretation of that curved line is a tie of the a​​​​​​​1 crotchet – Chopinesque ties were often erroneously interpreted by the engravers in a similar manner – and this is the interpretation we adopt to the main text. In GE, the curved line was omitted, perhaps due to interpretation difficulties.
