Slur in AI and A (→GE→FE→EE)

Our alternative suggestion

Slurs in the sources are consistent and unequivocal (only an earlier beginning of a slur in A could be considered). However, because slurs in AI and A are practically identical in bars 33-35, it is possible to regard slurs in this fragment in A as written by Chopin with less attention. Our alternative suggestion takes account of a comparison with A notation in analogous bars 11-12, where the slur reaches the e1.
