 Great analysis!

 This code is weird... At first I saw the `answerChan <- struct{}{}` and I
 thought, this channel is only used to send a single signal; maybe this
 would be better as `close(answerChan)` as in
 [https://blog.golang.org/pipelines#TOC_6. this example]. But then I don't
 understand why it's checking `ok` from the channel read--that seems to
 indicate that it's trying to distinguish a send from a channel close...
 But the code only uses one of those two possibilities.

 Yes, I think you're right.

 deprecated (​peerconnection.go#L518) we are better off not relying on it
 anyway.

 Agreed.
