b. 25

composition: Op. 43, Tarantella

..

We add  before c1 in the second half of the bar. In EE its omission is justified by the fact that this part is written out on the top stave.

b. 25

composition: Op. 43, Tarantella

A, FC3 (→FE→IE), GE

EE
..

In the second half of the bar all sources except EE have a crotchet and quaver e in L.H. In EE there is a dotted crotched (and no quaver), which most probably is an editorial revision of the error made by the copyist who omitted the quaver.

b. 27

composition: Op. 43, Tarantella

A, FC3 (→FE→IE), EE, GE2 (→GE3→GE4)

GE1
..

In GE1 arguably as a result of omission there is no d sound in the chord on the first beat of the bar.

b. 27

composition: Op. 43, Tarantella

..

In A and GE1 (→GE2→GE3) there is no  lowering g to g in the LH part.

b. 28

composition: Op. 43, Tarantella

A, FC3 (→FE→IE), EE, GE4

GE1 (→GE2→GE3)
..

The slur beginning on the second beat of b. 28 in GE1 (→GE2→GE3) is most certainly inaccurate. It may have resulted from unclear marking of slurs in [FC1] which was the basis for these edtitions (e.g. when b. 27 was the last bar in the last but one line of text). The notation of slurs in A, however, leaves no doubts as for Chopin's intentions. 

See annotation in bars 7-8.
