A probably has a long accent here.

A short accent in GE (→FEEE)

The shape of the accent in A makes it resemble a short accent  (a relatively wide angle between the arms), but it has the size of a long accent. The syncopated longer rhythmic value of the accented note makes us believe it was meant to be a long accent, yet the editions have a short accent here.
