What if there is any error in the worker (like "out of memory") while
gathering the statistics?  It seems both for workers as well as for
the main backend it will just error out.  I am not sure if it is a
good idea to error out the backend or parallel worker as it will just
end the query execution.  Also, even if it is okay, there doesn't seem
to be a way by which a parallel worker can communicate the error back
to master backend, rather it will just exit silently which is not
right.
