Differences in leak-down rates are inconsequential, IMNSHO, but I don't mind giving my tires a shot of air every 1-3 months - it's a good time to inspect the tires and wheels. YMMV

I posted this video in an RV forum that I'm on too. Think about 90% of them use 78% nitrogen.

Nitrogen is a big selling point with the rv dealers. When I bought my first camper, then my first motorhome. Both of them had a sticker on them saying that they had nitrogen in the tires. Dealers was charging between $3 to $10 a tire for nitrogen.

Some with free top-offs. Most of the rv forum thinks it's a scam too. Think about these people. They have a lot of tires on their rv's. Class A's and large Class C's can have 6, 8, 10 tires, sizes around 275/80-22.5. These people pay attention to their tires more then most people here because of the cost of the tires. 6 Michelin tires for my motorhome is $4,100. Since I've owned it. I put air in to the tires once. That's when I first got it in 2014. Haven't needed to put air in since. My air pressures are 115 front and 95 rear. Load range H. IMO....nitrogen is for the racecar driver who can tell the difference in 1 turn of adjustment, not the avg joe driving on the street. If you want to use it. Knock your socks off. I could use that money on something else.
