Extension Preferences Are Not Enumerated in about:config

(Just dawns on me...)
- Extension Preferences Are Not Enumerated in about:config - in Quantum
Is that correct?
And if not, where are they, & just how is a "human" supposed to make sense of things?
Another black box, essentially hidden.
Suppose (though such things "can't" happen, I suppose), suppose, you put in an extension xyz.
And xyz goes in & modifies NoScript's whitelist, setting particular sites to Allowed...
Sure, you can look at NoScript's (what I consider) very basic "interface" (Options), & you might catch that.
But suppose it changes some other preference that is not enumerated in NoScript Options itself.
Just how is one going to find something like that?
