Hate the GR shutdown but that seems just like a logical house cleaning consequence.

Only if you assume the extension existed to support the Google Reader service, which is false. RSS is a standard with many uses outside Google Reader.
Sure, but what was the default service?
Not the browser extension, but when I check a Feedburner feed in Chrome I see, in order: MyYahoo, NewsGator, MyAOL, Bloglines, Netvibes, Google Reader, Pageflakes, and then a dropdown for other options.
the majority of those service is defunct.
Sure, but part of the reason why they're defunct is that Google Reader killed them. Which doesn't address this point but does the larger conversation.
