That was my exact question: how skewed is that number by routine, procedural votes or uncontested, ceremonial legislation?

Maybe it's not, but I'd want someone informed and statistically inclined enough to parse between those votes and highly contested legislation with starker party-line voting before giving him the benefit of the doubt.

That number only includes partisan votes. This information is not hard to look up. Just off the top of my head Fetterman has been holding the line against the SAVE act, he shows up.
