I wouldn't call that blurb "definitional". Especially after it points out that "many tasks are more specific". It's setting a 'baseline" from one is expected to derive additional specificity.

Extra effort lets you increase your ability to run fast, jump high or far, lift weights, and force doors or bend bars. It doesn't let you increase your DX in combat.
You can house-rule in back in, but the RAW is straightforward.

I'm sorry but you're explicitly cutting out the "etc" from that list.
However... having noted the "... feat of strength or speed can push the limits" line I can accept the argument that Extra Effort is being dialed back to only feats of ST and Basic Move (HT based Lifting being the lone exception).
I still shake my head at this, but c'est la vie.
