A few points.

1. It doesn't pull it in. There's no reference and there's just an
informative statement.
2. There is a rationale. In fact, the relevant text pretty much is all
rationale.

   All Implementations MUST support DTLS 1.2 with the
   TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 cipher suite and the P-256
   curve [FIPS186
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-rtcweb-security-arch-20#ref-FIPS186>].
Earlier drafts of this specification required DTLS
   1.0 with the cipher suite TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA, and
   at the time of this writing some implementations do not support DTLS
   1.2; endpoints which support only DTLS 1.2 might encounter
   interoperability issues.
