Shorter  in FC (→GE)

In A this bar opens a new line, while the  mark begins still before the accolade, which suggests that it should start earlier, e.g. in the previous bar. Therefore, it is almost certain that considering it an extension of the  hairpin from the preceding bars, as it was performed both in FC (→GE) and FE (→EE), is right.
The slightly shorter mark in FC (→GE) is an inaccuracy of the copyist.
