This is really well written and clear. Thank you for that.

I found “for efficiency reasons” in this text

  For efficiency reasons, multiple users of Web Push often share a
   central agent that aggregates push functionality.

To be so broad that I wasn’t sure what you were telling the reader. Are there
any specific efficiencies that you could call out, so that we’d better
understand why central agents are used? And if that’s already written down
someplace, adding a pointer would be even better.

I’m curious about algorithm agility, but I’m not the person to ask that
question ...
