It's not. Absolute alcohol is 200-proof, and is readily available, if you have the license for it. In the 1970s, I ordered 25 gallons of it for the lab I worked in, and National Distillers gave it to for free, to save the paperwork; in truckload quantities, it was something like 90c per gallon.
At 1 atmosphere, fractional distillation can produce alcohol of 95.6% which would be 191.2 proof. At lower pressure, absolute alcohol can be produced.

What proof is pure grain alcohol?
"Pure alcohol is 200 proof." Not generally true. You would think so, except that practical issues with distilling mean that the product known as "pure grain alcohol" is 190 proof (5% water cannot be distilled out of the product) in many states, and in some states, for legal reasons, "PGA" is actually 151 proof because higher proof is not legal to sell. It is difficult to maintain alcohol at 200 proof because, when exposed to air, it self-dilutes to a lower proof.
