At 3.13 and 4.12 the same notes. Mark duplicated it. He havent done it before or after. I guess he confused.
At 4.37 he missed a string at the cord.
This version is one of the greatest.
Just to see these 2 misses.
The one at 3.13 y 4.12 is a repetition

He played the same twice, he use to play this riff in the 2nd stanza.

It seems obvious to me that the guitar parts in BiA on stage are mostly improvisation. I think Mark starts with 'that first three notes' everybody expects, and all the rest is spontaneous improvisation, or following a vague melody in your head. Most is just 'standard minor pentatonic stuff in G#m', easy stuff to play for guitar players.
This way it easily happens that you play similar licks again, the fingers and the melody in your head are in some auto-pilot mode

I think your exactly correct Ingo, it just happens that Mark has wonderful note selection, and his playing at touch is so emotional.
