It feels to me like the same would be true of 121 proficiency checks.
(d) A person who has, within the period specified in paragraph (c)
of this section, passed a pilot proficiency check conducted by an
examiner, an approved pilot check airman, or a U.S. Armed Force, for a
pilot certificate, rating, or operating privilege need not accomplish
the flight review required by this section.
A 141 stage check is not a proficiency check for a certificate, rating, or operating privilege(this is where the 121 and 135 checks are allowed). That is why you still needed an endorsement for the BFR is you used the stage check. Different ballgame for 121 and 135 PCs.
