The deletion in A allows one to see that originally Chopin wrote the sixth e2-c sharp3 as the 3rd quaver of the bar. The change was probably made after the whole bar had been written in - the proof of that is the   raising c2 to c sharp2 in the second half of the bar.

All the sources have the unnecessary  before c sharp2, the lower note of the 3rd semiquaver. This is probably a remnant of the initial version of the 3rd quaver of that bar.
