jan-ivar has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc:
== Why clear [[LastCreatedOffer]] and [[LastCreatedAnswer]] when going to "stable"? ==
Chrome and Safari both allow [this](https://jsfiddle.net/jib1/1foL6p9r/25/):
```js
const offer = await pc1.createOffer();
await pc1.setLocalDescription(offer)
await pc2.setRemoteDescription(offer);
const answer = await pc2.createAnswer();
await pc2.setLocalDescription(answer);
await pc1.setRemoteDescription(answer);
await pc1.setLocalDescription(offer);
await pc2.setRemoteDescription(offer);
await pc2.setLocalDescription(answer);
await pc1.setRemoteDescription(answer);
```
...while Firefox fails with `InvalidModificationError: Cannot set local offer when createOffer has not been called.`.
Spec [says](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#set-description) Firefox is correct: _"Set both connection.[[[LastCreatedOffer]]](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#dfn-lastcreatedoffer) and connection.[[[LastCreatedAnswer]]](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#dfn-lastcreatedanswer) to `""`"_ [when going to "stable"].
But it's unclear to me why the spec says this. Is there a good reason? If not, then should we remove that line from the spec?
