No marks in AsI & A

Wedges in GE (→FE,EE)

Wedge & dot suggested by the editors

The missing staccato markings in A must be considered Chopin's inadvertence – the marks are present in all similar situations. The wedges added by GE are most probably inauthentic; however, even if they had been added at Chopin's request, it would have been an ad hoc correction, adjusted to the unifying manner of the engraver of GE1. Due to the above, in the main text we suggest adding marks in accordance with the consistent rule visible in A – wedges only for the bass notes on the main beats of the bar.
