Re: [battery] Are there new use cases for battery API? (#64)

@anssiko, Reilly asked:

> Anssi, given this API has been available for a number of years are you aware of any compelling examples of real-world use? [Metrics from Chrome](https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/2198) say ~10% of page loads call this API, what are they using it for?

@anssiko, you also completely ignored my feedback and didn't answer my questions:

> does **every website on the Internet need to have access to this API?** or should it only be available to **sites that actually need it?** Why not only expose this to specific PWAs or make it explicitly something that developers would manually enable (or sites would request)?
>
> This is critical: there may be legitimate niche uses for the API, but can those audiences/developers/users be served without exposing **all other users** to this tracking vector. 


I know these are hard questions,  but closing the issue without answering them is not helpful.
