No signs in A (→FCGE, →FEEE)

It seems that the dynamic markings modelling the figuration were not accidentally overlooked by Chopin in A; it was rather a conscious decision related to the general change of concept of the Prelude – see the note on the tempo indication. Chopin would often cross out such marks in autographs, e.g. in the Scherzo in B Minor, Op. 31, b. 334-349.
The same applies to the markings in b. 3-4 and 7 and 9.
