i think it cleared a thing up or two. However, would you mind sharing why insertable streams are apparently required for this to work? As WebRTC traffic is encrypted already E2E it seems to me that constructing the SDP with the key, currently used here with insertable streams, would be good enough.

Sure. So WebRTC is encrypted between peers when 100% of the communication is going peer to peer. But in most WebRTC services, your peer is actually the SFU, which is the server. So you're encrypting to the server, not to the other participants. (Most "pure" WebRTC platforms switch over to SFU-based communications at 4 or more participants, but many of the bigger platforms always send video/audio through the SFU regardless of how many participants there are.)
