Don't browsers have built-in native H.264 support?

Media source extensions don't give you the low-level control needed for low-latency and streams need to be re-muxed into fMP4. Web-RTC is a good option, but the infrastructure required can be a non-starter for many projects. For example, native webRTC libraries for golang are currently lacking to support needed to stream low-latency video.
