A missing mark before the last semiquaver is most probably Chopin's oversight. The fact that the soloist recalls one of the main themes of this movement in a new, yet well-prepared C major key brings peace after the turbulent orchestral fragment. In this context, a deviation from the original, diatonic course of the phrase does not seem to be justified and sounds strange. The natural added in GE is almost certainly inauthentic, the mark added in EE2 (→EE3) even more so, but the mark added in FEH (probably by the pupil's hand) may be coming from Chopin.

In FE, the group of eight notes is connected with a semiquaver beaming, which is most probably a mistake. An additional beam was added both in GE and EE.

There is no  restoring b in bar 408 before the last semiquaver in the L.H. in FE; the same applies to b1 ​​​​​​​in bar 409. These patent oversights, repeated almost certainly after [A], were corrected in GE (in both bars) and partially in EE (only in bar 409).
