I think this is what we want the spec to say. It's confusing if bytes and retransmissions are put in separate counters and have to manually be added together to get something sensible - it matters little whether they are sent on ssrc or rtxSsrc.

However, the fact that bytesSent includes retransmissions means that "Total number of RTP packets sent for this &lt;a&gt;SSRC&lt;/a&gt;" is actually referring to the bytes sent of both the {{RTCRtpStreamStats/ssrc}} and the {{RTCOutboundRtpStreamStats/rtxSsrc}}.

This matches current implementation though.
