And there is other data to support that RR is relatively the same until you hit about 60 mph, then it increases dramatically - which is probably where the video you looked at was coming from.
I am still not sure the graph above compares oranges to oranges. It shows that RR force increases with speed, but OP never argued this. The argument is that in the range of speeds tire used the increase is liniar, so driving one mile at 25mph and 50mph will require to overcome XYZ kJ of RR
