I would like if the “Add Extremes” function could be set to do so “except for segments shorter than n”.

Glyphs does only insert extreme if the vertical or horizontal distance to the next node is big enough. Please test this and send me some sample outlines to improve the algorithm.
Ah, I spoke before testing. This is yet another case where I had a good idea only to find that you had it first. Thanks!
