Sorry for the slow response. I don't understand workers deeply but the thing that I think would be interesting to understand for webcompat is how many pages use workers that used a given API, for the kinds of workers (if any?) that are controlled by a single page. Is that reasonable?

Yes, I think it is reasonable to record such information for the worker that is controlled by a single page, i.e dedicated worker. Especially if a page creates a lot of workers that use a given API, we could have a more accurate overview from page points of view.
