Thank you ! I was too focussed on the stat part and missed the obvious.
It's indeed better with this file.

... Which led me to discover that the area I choose to gather my stats 
is wrong (parallel_vacuum_end), it only traps workers allocated for 
parallel_vacuum_cleanup_all_indexes() and not 
parallel_vacuum_bulkdel_all_indexes().

Back to the drawing board...
