Slur from 2nd beat in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

No slur in GE3

Slur from 1st beat suggested by the editors

A comparison with analogous bar 453 most probably points to an inaccurate notation of the beginning of the slur in the sources. It is also the Chopinesque fingering, indicating those figures to be performed legato, that supports the idea of encompassing the first group of semiquavers with a slur.
