Attack speed is maxed at 2.5 AA per second, 100% crit chance with infinity edge provides 2.5x damage multipllier. 40% cdr cap is 1.66x dps on spells, 60% cdr is 2.5x dps on spells. Imagine attackspeed capped at 1.66, or crit capped at 44%. Granted spells have base damage which is much higher than autoattacks in addition to various effects and cc, but AA get both attackspeed and crit multiplicity while mages only get AP and CDR (both have their own pens.)  It should be phenominally difficult for an ad champion to get 60% max cap, so AD casters would not be affected as muc has mages.
