According to us, the dots over the L.H. crotchets are a mistake by the copyist, who possibly put the marks over the L.H. in bars 45-46 instead of in bars 46-47. The remaining three times this four-bar section appears (bars 1-4, 9-12 and 37-40), none of the sources include staccato dots in the first bar.
