What outcome would you want in a WebWorker?

I think false, so yeah the name could be better.

I think you can get it even shorter with window != null?

This would yield Uncaught ReferenceError: window is not defined in eg Node. Also, it's usually pretty easy to configure a bundler to strip out typeof window checks, like we're doing here: https://github.com/marko-js/examples/blob/master/examples/webpack-express/webpack.config.js#L76

Rad on both counts.
