I think this is very expectable. The Wilson B is calculated
from the high-resolution end of the Wilson plot, where the disorderd
loops hardly contibute, so it overweights the well-ordered atoms that
diffract strongly to high resolution.
The average atomic B weights every atom equally so the average is
more representative of all the atoms including the disordered ones.
