I saw this also. WebRTC just is the path of least resistance/highest adoption at this point.
We could go make a better/simpler standard for video streaming that is TCP. What a giant battle though that would never seen adoption .
I have accepted/embraced the challenge of making WebRTC as accessible as possible. Stuff like WebRTC for the Curious in hopes of making it less painful for everyone dealing with the complexity :)

What do you mean? <video> in HTTP against a stream works, you don't need a new standard. But it's not a low-latency path (you cannot control the buffer).
