I don't know either way whether 20mph makes sense in places like Wales, but at least in central London I think the shift to 20mph speed limits is great. Based on what I've seen, I'd be shocked if it isn't providing a meaningful improvement in safety for cyclists and pedestrians and lowering the severity when there is a car crash. And it seems like it also provides an extra nudge towards people using public transit rather than driving/ubering.
