You bring up a very interesting point, which I have never even considered the multiple times I have performed this piece.
Prompted by your question, I did a quick google, and it appears that some others on the bboard have had similar thoughts in the past:

As for my thoughts, I will have to do some thinking about interpretation next time I brush off this piece. I think you may be on to something regarding a timbral shift.
However, as there are clear markings to gradually crescendo to forte and then diminuendo, I feel as if a dynamic change over the phrase may be appropriate.
(Also let it be known I am using the 1919-20 version, as available on IMSLP. This is because it is the version that was published during his lifetime, and left without revision, leading me to believe it is the version he had settled on)
Sorry for the slightly lengthy response there!
