It's possible to expose in the profiler UI, although the granularity might be too high and skew might be an issue. Really this is more of a telemetry-style metric - we can accumulate counts for how often fallbacks are hit (or how often we generalize into a polymorphic stub) and report that as a single number or set of numbers per script on a periodic basis.
That said, it might still be useful even with the skew. It's just that as we keep adding more and more stuff to "sample" in the profiler, we risk death-by-a-thousand-skews in being able to interpret the results. We have enough problems with that as it is in other areas.
