I worked for a large engine builder. We had 3 wet spin stations. Every long and short block got hooked up to a warm 45psi oil supply and spun at 800 rpm. We adjusted valves and checked compression I can tell you that without an oil pan or intake the amount of oil spun up on the cam was amazing.
I've read, here on site, that excessive idling is not good but that was intended to mean 700-800 rpm idle and then turning the engine off. Like you stated 2000 rpm long hauls at 70-75 mph are common and have had no ill effects on my cars.
Iron surfaces "work harden" with time so that will most likely explain why after a break in period cam material can withstand lower oiling conditions and survive.
