It definitely simplifies it on paper - it would be far easier to draw an
ICE negotiation diagram that only deals with a single stream component.

I am not sure however to what extent this would actually simplify
implementations. They would still need to handle multiple candidates and
pacing and such ... and of course they'd also need to implement  a
de-multiplexing layer.

Personally I consider this as the most important part.
