TIL! That definitely makes the use case a lot more dubious. Doing some googling, I'm wondering whether the original intent was to switch everything over to SCTP: data channels seem to have used the same protocol as media pre-2014. Maybe no one got around to it and things ossified?

Congestion Control still works though between the two protocols! SCTP and RTP try and respect each other. It follows the same rules as having multiple people using WebRTC on the same internet.

  That's... besides the point? The argument isn't that SCTP is a bad protocol.
