The missing dot prolonging the bottom note of the octave, a2, despite the semblance of righteousness – in FE the bottom note is a quaver – is almost certainly an oversight. Wherever similarly written-down octaves (i.e. in two-part notation) are provided with dots, they are present next to both notes of an octave, irrespective of the notation of a given octave (one- or two-part).
