The slurring of AI is an element of an earlier, clearly different version of articulation of the entire theme, which we discuss in more details in the note in bar 70. However, it is unlikely that Chopin's final intention would be no slurs in this bar, hence in the main text we suggest a slur modelled after an authentic slur in analogous bar 14.
