Code Review

This pull request enables the extensionConfig feature by default across the configuration files. This is a good step towards launching the feature. My review includes a suggestion to move this setting out of the experimental category to better reflect its new stable status, which will improve the configuration structure and maintainability. This comment aligns with general best practices for code organization and feature lifecycle management, and does not contradict any of the provided rules.
