Why access to all sites? With Invidious instances being community-hosted, it's not feasible to manually add instances to the list of allowed sites and remain up-to-date. Instead, Extraneous runs on all pages, checking if they are an Invidious page. Unless a site is trying to look like an Invidious instance to the add-on, Extraneous code should not run on unrelated sites beyond this check.
