2 wedges in A

Proposed addition to A

2 dots in GE

1 dot in FE (→EE)

The staccato wedges, quite clear in A, were interpreted as dots in  GE (→FE→EE); what is more, FE (→EE) only has the first dot printed. We give both wedges of  A and suggest adding an analogous wedge over the last chord of the bar.
