Except that I

ABCbbing is not exactly the best site to post as evidence of anything, as they are typically on the fringe of reality at the best of time.
The references they provide do not actually support using a fast protein over a slow protein, and some are just plain disingenuous
Changes in muscle protein synthesis (top) and muscle protein breakdwon (bottom) with whey, casein or a mixture (ie milk)
With whey Synthesis and breakdown are massively increased (becasue thats the fun of injecting a lot of amino acids quickly) this would be associated with a lovely increase in urea production as the aminos are wizzed out.
With casein the peak of synthesis is lower but breakdown is far lower as the amino acids are not being broken down as they appear.
With a mixture, in this example it was 50:50 from memory, you get the best of both worlds. Greater synthesis + less breakdown = more balance.
