When the BV scale was first put together, whey isolate wasn't around. As we scale almost everything nowadays out of 100 (metric scaling) the top protein giving food was a whole egg, this, therefore got a rating of 100. When whey isolate came along, it was found that it had 1 1/2 times better absorption than egg so it had 156 as its BV.
Now, if you take whey isolate's BV as 100, as in can't go higher than 100%, egg gets something like 70-ish, this means that for the likes of chicken and beef, who both scored less than egg, their BV is even lower than the orginal grade.
This is why it's important to have good quality shakes in your daily diet.
