Added even more fields to the parameter options! You can now edit the suspicion threshold along with some more sensitive options like the adjustment offset (basically the horizontal shift of the logistic function that is used to normalize the score).

Also, while adding this, I realized I forgot to actually enforce the default value for all fields outside of just the options page. (Essentially, if you were to install the extension and never open the parameters tab, all the variables in there would default to null when it actually analyzes web pages.) Made sure to include a fix for that in these changes!

I also learned a little more about sigmoid functions in general while trying to come up with a good enough caption for the new field, so that’s a nice bonus. Also had to add a little note at the top of the page because the defaults for these fields were not really chosen based on tested accuracy (they are simply based on my own observations of what seems to produce the most satisfactory results).

By the way, I’d like to take some time to acknowledge the amazing feedback I got after my first ship! For Chrome users wanting justice after seeing that this extension is only published on AMO, I should mention that publishing to the Chrome Web Store requires a $5 fee, which I (unfortunately) cannot pay at this time. For now, Chrome/Safari users can stick to following the official build instructions listed in the README. In the future, I’ll also try to optimize Extinction’s detection system since I’m starting to feel like its status of being “lightweight” is slowly slipping away as I add new features. Anyway, thank you all for your wonderful comments, and I hope to fulfill as many of your suggestions as I can! :)
