In this context, the missing  mark must be considered an inaccuracy – the fact of writing down a hold of the bass note with hand is most probably aimed at enabling clear pedalling, compliant with harmonic changes. The mark was added already in EE. It is present also in GE3, in the place we suggest in the main text. However, GE3 also arbitrarily moved the ​​​​​​​ mark.

[    ], our alternative suggestion

The missing  mark may be, but does not have to, a mistake of FE or an inaccuracy of [A]. However, since the previous appearances of this phrase offer two variants of a more detailed Chopinesque pedalling, we suggest respective additions; moreover, we adopt the indication modelled on bars 246-247, being a strict transposition of the discussed bars, in the main text. A ​​​​​​​ mark was added also in EE and GE3.
