The curve radii at intersections will be reduced to make pedestrian crossing lengths shorter. You're going to have to slow down more to make the corner, which means speed differentials increase and people slamming on their brakes when someone slows to turn will be more common. That's just one of many reasons I can see them lowering the speed limit.
