It's not about how many extensions there are. It's about half of them breaking with each new version. Unless you like outdated systems, in which case you are fine.
I am always on the freshest Fedora Workstation, and all the extensions I use are always supported from the start. I don't use that many to be honest. But, is extensions compatibility really an issue nowadays?
It can be. It depends on the extension dev.
It just depends on the complexity or specific area an extension touches. The shell is continually changing somewhere.
Last version was a big deal for JavaScript itself changing, so all extensions needed some simple updates.
