You are right. It was too bad they left out that line. It struck me also. But apparently not very hard :-)

I was struck by how her husband treated her like an infant. From symbolically giving her the nursery, to his LANGUAGE.

"hoping for no better profession" is a great line, but would not appear in a modern version. It is un-PC.

We obligatorily pretend that no profession is 'better' than any other. And if it's a profession mainly associated with women, it's even more revered.

No way would that line appear in the play.
