WebRTC is complicated; there are many more edge cases compared to websockets. Off the top of my head, I know I'd need to run a TURN server for people behind symmetrical NAT or CGNAT networks, which would be a pain. WebSockets are much more accessible for everyone. In the future I'll investigate UDP protocols, but its likely I'll always use TCP for web games.
