In FE the missing  restoring b1 is almost certainly an oversight, which is proven by the compliant and flawless text of all sources in analogous b. 231 – f1 and not f1. The mistake was repeated in EE1, yet noticed and corrected in EE2 (→EE3).

b. 208

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

There is no accidental to the bottom note of the 2nd grace note (d2) in the sources. This patent inaccuracy was removed only in GE2, in which the first grace note, with a  to the bottom note, was moved to the beginning of b. 208. It could have been the inaccuracies concerning the accidentals of the grace notes that influenced the decision to correct the rhythm too.

b. 274

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

Like in b. 41 and 67, the  restoring g2 in the last octave in the bar is missing in the majority of the sources. The mistake was corrected only in EE2 (→EE3), in which sharps were added next to both notes of that octave. In the main text we only add the necessary  next to g2.
