Semiquavers after AsI

Dotted rhythm in A (→GEFE,EE,FESB)

In AsI the rhythm on the 2nd quaver in bars 242 and 244 – two semiquavers – in the piano reduction is compliant with the parts of the individual instruments. In A (→GEFE,EE,FESB) Chopin replaced the semiquavers with dotted rhythms; however, he left the orchestral part unchanged. The change is undoubtedly final.
