Wedge in A, contextual interpretation

No mark in GE (→FE,EE)

Over the L.H. octave in A there is a staccato dot crossed through with a vertical line. According to us, it was most probably supposed to be a wedge with which Chopin wanted to replace the initial dot. However, in GE (→FE,EE) the correction was understood as a deletion of the mark, which, although possible, we consider less likely.
