Best Win Elo

Why does the 'best win' stat show the opponents rating after the you win the game as opposed to before? Let's say I get paired with a 1601 as a 1489. Anyone would say "I'm paired against a 1600." If that's my best win, why does the stat say "you beat a 1592"? Feels very killjoy-ish & a lil invalidating. I don't know of any other competitive scene where is says you defeated what the opponent is currently as opposed to what they were when you faced them...
