If you need to install "extensions" to any application, it shows that the developer [in this case Google], didn't seem to came much about functionality. And some extension could cause problems [i.e. memory leaks, bad programming, open up a security issue].
The extensions provide functionality that is only being used by a very small number of people. When putting this into the 'main software', it only confuses other users and decreases user experience and usability.
a good developer only provides functions that the user will need, not those functions that he is capable to program.

If you make an application do everything out of the box, it'll be bloatware. Allowing a user to add extensions is a sensible way of stopping this. As for problems, yes and no. There are badly written extensions, and there is incompletely tested bloatware. Both cause problems. Loosely coupled modules will likely win, though.
