That's not even a nitpick. The parent got it completely wrong.

If Chrome mobile never supported extensions, then it's false to claim they "ditched" them.

From the original post, it's more like a language parsing issue - Chrome was original a desktop-only application and it had extensions. When it was ported to Android, they ditched extensions, as well as jettisoning numerous other features.

Thus, not "completely wrong."
