The main argument is that people trying to go faster than the flow of traffic disrupt the flow more than the slowpokes, who on congested roads tend to be trying to deal with exits and whatnot.

People slowing from the speed limit to deal with ramp traffic wouldn't be all that variant if other people weren't trying to do 80 through the mob.
