P2P is notionally interesting and I can see some edge cases for it but consistency of edge delivery are considerable and out of the publisher’s control, while the latency problems (which, you-don’t-need-that dismissals aside, are actually what people building stuff in this space care about) seem nearly irreparable by design. A browser isn’t an option using current technologies; WebRTC doesn’t really scale like this. RTMP/SRT/WebRTC for ingest, HLS or equivalent for consumption. That’s what it’s all built around and expecting other people to donate transit to you isn’t a reliable model for folks who have other options, I think. And most people do have other options.
