Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Yes. Some folks who variously:
a) didn't know how to recognize a cheeky straw man proposal
b) didn't know how to take a joke
c) didn't agree with (or understand the importance of) the never-break-the-web imperative that TC39 operates under (turns out this is a lot of people)
tried to do exactly this to "prevent smoosh":

Mostly, though, they just taught TC39 to have less fun and to ignore the "just break the web it's okay!" crowd.
Why TC39 operates under this never-break-the-web imperative: because if they didn't, every proposal they consider might devolve into an unresolvable discussion of "well is THIS thing important enough to break the web over? how much usage would this change break? how valuable do we think this is?". The easiest, and only, way to resolve all possible such discussions is to just not have them.

TC39: Add Object.groupBy and Map.groupBy
Global iterator type is coming: https://github.com/tc39/proposal-iterator-helpers
But a method named `groupBy` on iterators traditionally means a different thing: https://github.com/tc39/proposal-array-grouping/issues/51#is...
Global iterable type it's too late for, since there's many extant iterables in the language and on the web which don't have it in their prototype chain and can't reasonably be changed.

Snap.js - A competitor to Lodash
They are coming out with array.group() soon, which is supposed to also fulfil the use-case of partitioning :) - https://github.com/tc39/proposal-array-grouping.

Set methods proposal reaches stage 3
I'm also looking forward to map.emplace() and arr.group() and iterator helpers.

At the end of the day, it comes down to whether browser vendors are willing to ship the feature even though it breaks said websites, and they do have visitor data to back those decisions. If the rule was "never break any website ever", you'd be able to block proposals you don't personally like by crafting a website that "gets broken" by that proposal.
At least in the array grouping proposal, they did evaluate amount and popularity of possibly breaking sites, before eventually renaming the method from .groupBy to .group
