    Update: I've found that the USA NAS is in press with their amino acid RDA's,
    and they average over double the WHO ones:

    Amino Acid WHO NAS
    Isoleucine 10 19
    Leucine 14 42
    Lysine 12 38
    Methionine + Cysteine 13 19
    Phenylalanine + Tyrosine 14 33
    Theronine 7 20
    Tryptophan 3.5 5
    Valine 10 24
    total 83.5 200

    See

    Still seems low compared to the total protein RDA, but better.
    The quest continues ...
