The fact that b is to be held is marked in FE (→GE) through an additional stem and extending dot for the 4th semiquaver. In further bars, Chopin already applies the notation with tie; therefore, in the main text, we adopt this more exact notation also in this case (similarily in bar 537). In EE1 (→EE2), the note was not held, which was corrected in EE3, most probably on the basis of comparison with the respective bar of the recapitulation.
