Is it accurate to say that eBPF can observe data at kernel level as what wireshark does for networking?

Yeah you are correct, but apart from networking there are other domains where eBPF can help you observe data. Recently during ebpf-summit 2020 there were a number of usecases presented by various industry leaders like Google, Facebook, Datadog, Adobe, Gitlab etc. You can view the recordings from the summit to know about the power of eBPF - https://ebpf.io/summit-2020

Ironically, BPF is a part of what Wireshark does for networking.
