Is surf_mesa_aether available on PC?

Is surf_mesa_aether available on PlayStation 5?

It is a 0–100 momentum signal: 50% subscriber-growth velocity relative to mods in the same game, 20% favorite growth, 20% view growth, and 10% update recency. It is not a quality rating. The current score is 19.8.
Are these the real Steam Workshop numbers?
