The absence of wedges in GE3 seems to be intentional – the marks in these bars could have been considered erroneous, whereas Chopin could have wanted to mark in this way only the final progression (from bar 402). According to us, it is more likely that it is the missing marks in bars 399-402 that are a result of an oversight. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions |

Two subsequent slurs starting later than in the adjacent figures must be an inaccuracy of FE, partially repeated in GE1 (→GE2) and EE. In the main text, we move the beginnings of the slurs to over the 1st semiquaver, in accordance with the musical sense and analogous figures. Such a revision was introduced already in GE3. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies |

From the 2nd half of bar 399 on, five subsequent figures in the R.H. are devoid of slurs in GE1 (→GE2). The patent mistake was corrected in GE3. However, according to us, the roots of this mistake could have been found in FE, which is proven by the set of figures devoid of slurs in GE1 (→GE2) overlapping with the set of figures devoid of wedges on the topmost note. Such a compliance of mistakes most often points to their common origin, since committing the same or similar mistakes independently in the same place is highly unlikely. Therefore, most probably both slurs and wedges were overlooked in FE (or even in [A]), which was then corrected, but only with respect to slurs, in the last phase of proofreading of FE (→EE). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |

In bar 401, the mark is placed in FE after the d1-a1 crotchet, which is most probably an inaccuracy, since it cannot be justified in terms of sound. The notation was revised – in various ways – both in GE and EE. In the main text, we suggest yet another solution, combining harmonic purity with a high compliance with the original notation. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |

Although not all uneven quavers in FE (→GE1→GE2) are provided with staccato dots (the marks are absent in the 1st half of bar 404 and in the 2nd half of bar 405), there is no doubt that the defects are to be attributed to Chopin's or the engraver's inaccuracies. EE added dots, while GE3 removed the dot in bar 404 and added one in bar 405. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |
