I am not sure I understand the problem. What do you mean by "extended XDR display" in the context of MonitorControl? Are you referring to XDR brightness upscaling in BetterDisplay? If so, take a look at this: https://github.com/waydabber/BetterDisplay/wiki/XDR-and-HDR-brightness-upscaling#softwarehardware-safety-considerations
