In GE1 (→GE2) the  restoring d2 at the end of the bar was overlooked. The mistake was corrected in GE3.

L.H. chords in FE (→GE)

a in L.H. in EEW
..

In EEW the bottom notes of the L.H. chords (a) were separated from the remaining ones, written down on the top stave, which thus seem to belong to the R.H. part. Perhaps it contributed to the omission of the  to g1 at the beginning of the bar – looking only at the alleged R.H. part on the top stave, one could assume that g1 would be more natural for the harmonic course.

g-c1-e in FE (→EEW)

No c1 in GE
..

The missing c1 notes in GE is probably an oversight by the engraver of FE, repeated after the proof copy of FE1, in the finished FE1 corrected by Chopin in the last stage of proofreading. Such a mistake is much more likely when reading a Chopinesque autograph than a printed version – cf., e.g. the Etude in G, Op. 10 No. 5, bar 15, the Etude in E, Op. 10 No. 11, bar 43 or the Concerto in F minor, Op. 21, II mov., bar 41.
