Slur to G1-G in A, contextual interpretation

Slur to B1-B in GE (→FE,EE)

The range of the slur is not entirely clear in A, yet the slur goes beyond the bar line and points to the G1-G octave as the end point. In spite of that, in GE (→FE,EE) it encompasses only the last 3 quavers in bar 364. The engraver could have been influenced by the two previous slurs, which clearly encompassed the last quaver within their range. The interpretation suggested by us is supported by a slur correction in a similar motif a bar earlier and by the shape of the initial, three-quaver slur in that motif, radically different from the discussed one.
