You always say that, but the evidence is heavily against you.

In this thread, where are others questioning Arrowhead's "10%=5%" rule? Not you! (Unless you think your post about rolling resistance variations on highway pavement is somehow a huge rebuttal.)

Incidentally, I value kach22i's post, despite it contradicting what I have said. Why? Because it shows that there's probably evidence that at some 'highway' speed that relationship, as a rule of thumb, is probably OK for current cars. But we don't know what that highway speed is! (And I also learned something from his link re hybrids - very interesting for BEV cars too.)
