ITT (T5) idle limit less than continuous operating limit

I’ve ran across a P&W engine that has an idle T5 temp limit of which is considerably less than the normal continuous operating T5 limit. Does anyone have thoughts on the logic behind such a limitation? I’ve flown other P&W equipped aircraft without any idle limit. Hoping it’s not a blazingly obvious reason that would make a fool of me 🙄Thanks in advance.
