Different accents in sources

Long accents suggested by the editors

Short accents, our alternative suggestion

It is uncertain which kind of accents Chopin meant in bars 463 and 465, since two accents in bar 463 are long, whereas the one in bar 465 – short. As there is no reason to differentiate between the indications, we suggest unifying the marks and choose long accents for the main text. (We also suggest adding an accent at the beginning of bar 465.)
