Great question. We chose to implement the W3C standard Service Workers API in part to give people some flexibility here. E.g. depending on what your Worker does and who your clients are, it might be possible to push your same Worker code to the browser as a regular Service Worker. My hope is that other services choose to implement W3C standard APIs in the future, rather than everyone doing something bespoke as they do today.
I believe there are also some Node.js-based Service Worker harnesses designed for server-side use, though admittedly I haven't tried any myself. It would be cool to see such things developed further.

Happening as we speak. ;)
