What happens if someone tries to join an encrypted call without encryption?

There aren't really 'encrypted calls' as such: clients with this flag set to false will still decrypt any encrypted signalling they receive, so (I think) it should all still work. However, this is very deliberately hidden in an undocumented URL param, so anyone playing with it gets to keep both pieces if it breaks. :)

Deliberately not making it an option on the room since then we'd have to worry about server doing downgrade attacks.
