Shorter slurs in sources

Longer slurs, our alternative suggestion

In the main text, we give the slurs of the sources; however, taking into account the fact that the slurs in analogous b. 182-184 were possibly proofread, we suggest prolonging the slurs respectively here as well. Chopin could have assumed that the slurs given the first time would be enough to indicate the correct performance; on the other hand, one cannot exclude carelessness of the engraver, who could have implemented only the half of the marked corrections.
