I had an opportunity to drive on the German autobahn for the first time this year and quite a significant distance, close to 2,000 km in total. What I personally experienced is the road quality being sub-par for unlimited speeds, most cars driving close to 200 km/h that have no business doing that due to their technical capabilities (think 15 year old Volkswagen Passat), a lot of stress driving at night because sometimes you just cannot see anything approaching behind you and a few seconds later someone just passes by you.
There are reasonable middle-ground solutions, such as limiting the speed to 150 km/h if 130 is considered too low for majority but unlimited speed is just crazy because people tend to overestimate their driving skills and cars' capabilities.
