  b. 185

at end of bar in sources

 under b, our alternative suggestion

The  asterisk having been removed at the end of the bar in A and added under b, as in b. 180-181, is a reason for the suggested alternative version of pedalling. As Chopin considered a whole-bar pedal unsuitable for b. 184, there is no visible reason to apply it in b. 185, which is almost identical. Actually, there is a number of situations in which Chopin omits an intended correction in one of a few places, cf., e.g. the Etude in E, Op. 10 No. 3, b. 33Prelude in B, Op. 28 No. 21, b. 36 or the Concerto in E minor, Op. 11, I mov., b. 50-51.
