] Like Mr. Bennet, Mr. Dashwood was prevented by law from arranging his estate as he would have liked.

Yes, but JA obviously faults Mr Bennet for not having worked and saved to assure more financial security for his family when the estate passed, as it must, to the nearest male heir. Could not Mr Dashwood, too, have put some of his income "into the funds" to buy that annuity himself?
