Okay, as we have considerations, I would leave the RFC 2119 terms out. I
think a statement along the lines of the below might be most suitable.

Using TURN to provide TCP relay candidates [REF] was considered but not
seen as providing any significant benefit. First, use of TURN TCP would
only be relevant in cases which both peers requires to use TCP to
establish a PeerConnection. Secondly, that use case is anyway supported
by both side establishing UDP relay candidates using TURN over TCP
[REF]. Thirdly, using TCP only between the endpoint and its relay may
result in less issues with TCP in regards to real-time constraints, e.g.
due to head of line blocking.

Please provide feedback or word smith.

Cheers
