I know that nothing with mass can go as fast as light. I think that “there is a universal speed limit” and that :light achieves that limit” are two different statements. So, I am curious about the first one. Is it just an axiom?

This is going to be an unsatisfying anwer, but the fact is that we don’t know and we don’t really bother to ask. Science is concerned with asking “how” questions, not “why” questions. Asking why a fundamental property of the universe is what is simply isn’t a meaningful question for science. It doesn’t tell us anything useful.
