People feel the need to pass you when you go the speed limit because they are used to driving much faster than the speed limit, not because you're on a bicycle.

I assume the commenter was talking about situations where it wouldn’t be possible for a car to pass another 30mph car (or the overtaking car driver wouldn’t be bold enough to try).

Feeling the need to pass because of speed plus the ability to pass because it's a bike, is pretty different from feeling the need to pass because it's a bike. At the speed limit both of those things will happen. At 5 over the former will be much less common.
