Because it is stupid to blame early merging people instead of just assuming the speeders are the same people that speed and do shitty sudden lane changes in normal traffic.

You don't get it: the blame doesn't matter. What matters is designing the built environment in such a way as to afford good behaviors and preclude (or at least discourage) bad ones.

That's why traffic calming works much better than merely putting in speed limit signs with lower numbers on them, for instance, and why I really liked this suggestion elsewhere in the thread.
