i think its the yolk to white ratio
more yolk less white

if you are short on eggs when baking, blood can also make a suitable substitute

Yeah; it's called a black pudding....

"if you are short on eggs when baking, blood can also make a suitable substitute". Heh... dunno how well that would be accepted in my household. And I imagine that pavlovas would look a little less traditional. It would be nutritious though. Hmmmm..... Might have to replace my pig knife with a sharp tube and a hose attached to a CamelBak pack.
