I think one of the reason might be a miss understanding of the causality.
When a modification of the JS engine causes a TS Paint regression, without a
clear understanding of the causality this is not blindly-actionable out of
the report.
I agree, this should be the part of the developer to work that out, but the
TS Paint benchmark is out of the knowledge base of JS developers. I feel
that the problem is reaching developers with a wording known by the developers.
This is just a raw idea, but maybe this would make more sense to provide a
diff of profiles, and show what decreased / increased. At least this would
make these benchmarks less obscure.
