It is uncertain which staccato mark Chopin meant here; it could have influenced both Fontana and the engraver of FE to overlook it. The mark is in the form of a wedge, but it may have resulted from the hand having been moved too quickly after the dot had been written down, which is indicated by the tilt of the bottom part of the mark. In the main text we suggest the literal interpretation, i.e. wedge.
