I'm not totally sure this is the case, but it is my understanding that SP acts as shares in a company. Because of this, the more SP we commit to the platform, the greater our available resources get, bandwidth in this case.
However, the posting time limit is not related to an available resource and acts as an anti spam system instead, protecting not only bandwidth but also the quality of the content that can be shared and the platform integrity. Without this limit it would be quite simple to create bots that could make the comment section a total nightmare or even clog the whole network.

You're correct, but even with the limit I could still delegate my SP to 100 different bot accounts and spam the network with comments. The point is that it's relatively expensive to commit spam, which was the whole reason for tying bandwidth, voting power, etc... to SP. Thanks for reading.
Sure that would be a way to spam even with the time limit as it is. Without the time limit it would be even worse. Even powerful accounts are somehow limited on how much they can drop new content, which leads me to think, how often is someone able to post something relevant?
Thank you, Trogdor.
