  b. 80

No signs in A

before 3rd crotchet in FE (→GE,EE)

 before 4th crotchet suggested by the editors

The position of the first  mark is harmonically unjustified here, hence we consider it inaccurate. Inaccuracies in the interpretation of pedal markings inserted by Chopin both in autographs and while proofreading are not uncommon – cf., e.g. b. 72.
