The American mindset seems to be drive as fast as possible without being pulled over. Therefore the default speed tends to be driving 5mph over the speed limit.
So, the government should just set the speed limit to 5mph under what they actually want and then it’ll be fine.
They basically do just that. If you ever see a pair of tubes across the roadway, they’re measuring speeds. They set the speed limit at a percentile. Plus or minus and politics dependent…
The models used actually take speed reductions due to things like unseen conditions, uncertainty about driving over mystery hoses and excessive speed in an attempt to manipulate the data to get a higher speed limit into account.
Beyond that doing one does not in any way prevent the other from also being worked on at the same time, this is how roads are made better. After trivial assumptions like site/soil surveys, traffic studies are the most influential aspect transport engineers consider when working on a project.
That’s not a good justification. Totally ignoring your impact on your community, at the very least you owe it to yourself to try and improve your understanding of the world - ignorance is only shameful when it’s embraced.

If the fuckcars community wanted to lower speed limits they could just drive across those reeeallly slowly

If they put half as much effort into building the roads better as they did for normalizing data we’d be in good shape.
What a weird thing to say.

I’m a weird person.

You’re boring.
