Agree. 

That's exactly why I'm trying to understand how much the various Bundle-like proposals make pure WebRTC pay for 
a) WebRTC-to-legacy interop 
b) SIP's internal legacy interop issues, by the fact that SIP will also want to use the same bundle mechanism and that imposes restrictions to the commonly used solution

"a)" would be to some extent acceptable although I think gateways can be relied quite heavily in that case to do the job, while "b)" sounds a bit silly. But perhaps that was part of the bargain when SDP was adopted for RTCWeb...

In additon to legacy interop there looms the requirement in general to be able to negotiate non-Bundle in WebRTC (or SIP?) for certain QoS schemes to apply. But that should be the fallback and not the default.

An ideal solution would work without added penalties, and perhaps we can get one. What would definitely help is an entire message-flow, including (trickle-)ICE, that would show that RTCWeb call setup is not in Browser-to-Browser case made slower because of (SIP's?) legacy interop issues. That could answer for instance to Andy Hutton's TURN gathering for all offered m-lines/ports issue.
