In the 1st triplet, we add cautionary sharps before d3 and c​​​​​​​3 in the main text. The former was added already in GE and EE2 (→EE3); the latter – only in GE3. Moreover, we add a cautionary  before e3 in the 3rd triplet.

In FE, there is no accidental before the 10th semiquaver of the bar. This time, it was regarded as an inaccuracy both in GE and EE.

Wedge in FE

2 wedges in GE & EE

No marks (our suggestion)
..

The version of FE with a wedge present only in the L.H. cannot correspond to Chopin's intention, who was clearly striving for homogeneous articulation markings in both hands in this theme. It is likely that the wedge in the R.H. was overlooked, like it was assessed in GE and EE; however, a glance at the markings of both appearances of the theme (bars 171-205 and 415-449) makes us assume an erroneously added wedge in this place, since a staccato mark at the end of a slur never appears in those fragments.

No slur in FE

Slur in GE & EE
..

In FE, the missing slur in the L.H. is a patent inaccuracy (in addition, the staccato marks in the 2nd half of the bar were overlooked, not to mention the Terzverschreibung error – see the subsequent notes in this bar). The slur was added in GE and EE.

Staccato dots in EE & GE3
..

The missing staccato dots in the 2nd half of the bar is the last of a few mistakes and inaccuracies committed in FE in this bar. The markings were added in the remaining editions; however, it is only EE and GE3 that added them in accordance with the R.H. part.
