Take a biker for example, why do they pack so much clothes even if it has 30°C or more outside? Because of their Speed! One biker said: "As a rule of thumb, for every 10 kph, the temperature drops 1°C."

Now imagine going around 500kph, with an ambient temperature of only around 20°C.

500kph is only 270kts....spit should do that.

but speed has no effect, it's only OAT and visible water vapour, in the company I fly for (prob based on an industry standard) airframe icing can be anticipated between +10 deg to -40 deg and then only when in IMC or any precipitation, we like to avoid using anti-ice because it makes it harder to slow dow during descent, we certainly manage to fly faster than 500kph in the Learjet.
