I'm already speeding, so why should I move?
Anyway, curious to see what CP thinks.

The left lane of any multilane highway should only be used for passing. So at 110-115, if you are only keeping pace with traffic on the right, you are effectively blocking the highway and not meeting the spirit of "slower traffic keep right"
Anyone no matter what their speed, should keep right if they aren't passing.
With huge traffic volume, this kind of goes out the door. But still, you should go with the flow of traffic and maintain a reasonable safe distance with the car in front when in the left lane.
