I don't think I made clear with the above: I use many different addons
(NoScript, Privacy Badger, HTTPS Everywhere, uBlock Origin,
Self-Destructing Cookies, Foxyproxy, Tree Style Tab, and some misc
ones); I didn't want to give the impression that extensions are a
problem for me.

As far as the extensions that come _with_ IceCat, I just don't have use
for them or use something else in place of them.
