I have no idea exactly what that means.

But Apple provides extensions for most functionalities, but, as you mentioned, they’re more limited because Apple used to require that extension developers register a $100 per year account in order to develop extensions.

They don’t do this anymore, but it was a big reason why Safari got held back, especially in the beginning of the browser wars.
