Iff you use a SFU then either Firefox will have to send more data (which is limited by your upstream bandwidth which usually is much smaller than your downstream bandwidth) our your other clients will get only one resolution/audio codec. But that has little or nothing to do with latency. BTW, Firefox does have experimetal support for Simulcast, you video solution just has to use it (many don't). To the OP: there is an immanent latency in all network connections - packets need to pass through switches and routers, and let's not forget the speed of electrical signals. While one can get pretty low latency on local networks (Dante et al.) trying live jamming over the internet is pretty much impossible.
