Does this answer your question?

No, it doesn't.
If the law says the speed limit is 65 mph and someone is driving 50 mph in the left lane the it would make sense for them to move over for someone that is driving faster.
If the law says the speed limit is 65 mph and two drivers are doing 65 mph in both lanes and someone is driving OVER the speed limit behind them, are the two drivers who are doing the posted speed limit required to yield to the driver that is breaking the speed limit?
It sounds like what you are saying is the right lane is for people that do the speed limit or slower and the left lane or passing lane is for people that drive as fast as they want
