 We could perhaps add some more obvious instructions to enable it if it's a
 usability problem.

 have explicit interaction of installing the extension.

 I think so too. The way I see it, installing the extension is opting in
 (equivalent to setting a cookie on the web page), and the on/off toggle is
 for the convenience of not having to dig into the browser's extension
 settings if you want to disable it temporarily.
