Why is 5000 way too high and why is 3500 to 4000 ideal?

I do enjoy driving mine hard from time to time but I still don't speed shift. I bought mine to last me a while.
No one said anything about speed shifting... The OP was clearly talking about executing an up shift from second to third above 5000 RPM.
