Reply To: Questions About Menashe's Problem

3: In a case where the men of the shevet did have a lot of land (due to Pilegesh B’giva for Binyamin, for example), similar takanos were made to prevent large transfers of land to another shevet.

What takana could prevent case 3 (where an already-married-out-of-the-shevet daughter unexpectedly finds herself an heiress) from happening? Tell the brother not to die? Tell her to divorce her husband and kill her kids (from the other shevet who would stand to inherit from her)??!! Sorry, that doesn’t sound right to me.
