Re: [webrtc-pc] Should the spec describe addStream/onaddstream as legacy API?

We're beating around the bush. The decision to move away from addStream and towards addTrack was done a while ago (2013 or 2014?).

Can someone who still remembers the technical reasons for doing this repeat them or point to a summary of the decision? 
Does the rationale for the decision still hold? Does it still hold given that in May 2017 native interoperability of addTrack is still not a thing?
