The kind of measurement frequencies we are talking about are in the order

19.8 ohms, not a million miles from the 22 ohms of the resistor itself -
this is not what I would call a reasonable 'Q' value. Fair play to AADE,
it's designed to measure the inductance of inductors, not other components
;-)

If the reactance is much lower than the resistance, it's generally
inconsequential in a practical application. I think that's almost always
the case for carbon film resistors, and I suspect it's nearly always the
case for metal film resistors.

Probably, if the Q is so low as to make measurement difficult, it's
probably low enough that the X isn't important in a practical application.
