In AsI the last three staccato marks are dots, and not wedges, as the first three and as it is in the published version. The difference between the markings of the first and second half of the bar also concerns slurs – see the next note. All these markings are only in the R.H. part and only in this bar, hence it seems that Chopin was checking here what different variants of markings of this figuration look like. Having eventually opted for wedges and two-note slurs, he wrote them in A in the entire passage.
