No ornament in FE (→EE)

 & [] suggested by the editors

..

The missing mordent in FE (→EE) must be a mistake of the engraver. In the main text we add a  over the ornament, specifying the use of c2, and not of c2, as the top note. Chopin would often omit such marks and, according to us, such an inaccuracy is much more likely here than a 'default' use of c2. However, the literal interpretation – featuring c– certainly does not disturb the sonic atmosphere of this fragment of the Mazurka.

d tied in A1 & GE

repeated in FE (→EE)

..

The reason for the omission of the tie of d by FE (→EE) could have been the deletions of A1 at the beginning of b. 85. The fragment of the slur falling on that bar was deleted, and Chopin did not repeat that fragment on the rewritten – on a staff below – 1st beat of the bar.

Staccato dot in A1 & GE

No mark in FE (→EE)

..

The missing staccato dot in FE (→EE) may be a result of its placement in A1: the mark is very distinct yet placed quite high above the stave and inaccurately over the 1st quaver.
