I guess this reveals how fucking dumb I am. I can’t get the math to make sense in my head. If you watch at 1.25 speed, logically (or illogically I guess) I assume that this makes the video 1/4 shorter, but that isn’t correct.
In short, could someone reexplain how fractions and decimals work? Lol
Edit: thank you all, I understand now. You helped me reorient my thinking.

When you make something play x% faster, you’re not subtracting x%, you’re *dividing* by it. So,
1 ÷ 1.25 = 0.80 = 80%
1 ÷ 1.50 = 0.67 = 67%
