As I understood it there was always an expectation that some roads would change up or down in speed, as the implementation was monitored. Just a headline for headlines sake.
20mph in most places still a Very Good Thing.

Why is 20mph in appropriate places a Good Thing?
There's a whole thread on it. Go read up.
I've lived with it on my street, on my driving commute, when cycling and walking for over 2 years. It's great.

You said most places not appropriate ones.

Most of the places chosen, not most places.

Poor use of language on my part.
