> Why do radio link care about the average DC of the encoded data ?

It makes it easier to set the gain, and to decide where the threshold
between a 0 and 1 is.

> Does this apply to all forms of radio modulation ?

No, but it does apply to AM (amplitude modulation).  In most cases, the
bit stream into the transmitter is just used to key the carrier on and
off.
