You seem to think that everyone should adjust their behavior to meet the needs of those precious few who think they are above the law and established driving guidelines.
And to be clear, because you seem to be ignoring this point, I don't hog up the left lane. I use it to pass, and otherwise cruise in the right.
As I have said before, it is naive to think that everyone will drive the same speed. You yourself have admitted that you will drive 120 on the #1.

The simple fact of the matter is that people WILL drive different speeds. People - and vehicles - are different. Pretending that isn't true won't help.

But what WILL help is everyone just being aware and courteous and staying to the right.

Conversely, trying to be the road police and purposely not moving over, significantly increases the danger level (including for the person doing it).

There is no logical argument against this. And the resistance simply comes down to attitude (screw people that drive faster than me).

Again, yes there will be bad - and even dangerous - drivers out there. But if we all just stop making it our problem (the highway patrol are paid to deal with it), and cooperatively stay to the right, the problem is minimized for all. Including ourselves.
