Issues : Tie or slur

b. 5

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

..

In the absence of [A], it is difficult to determine whether the curved line over the g notes in FE (→GE,EE) is a tie sustaining those notes or a motivic slur (in Chopin's autographs, the differentiation is possible due to the shape of the curved lines). According to us, it is a motivic slur that is more likely here.
