one implication is that we have another use for score_obs
and we need helper methods for derivatives of those extra moment conditions, similar to what we can do with score_factor and hessian_factor in the variable addition score tests.
or we just use the OPG version
nice application, conditional binary association

Just parking a vague idea
In several cases we want to estimate additional statistics to help in the interpretation, these are like parameters that don't show up in the null model example
OLS(log(endog), ...)
(sounds similar to this case but I haven't looked at it in a long time)in general we can use
those might be algebraically equivalent in some cases.
extra moment condition only work for fit sample, i.e. we take into account that parameters are estimated from the same sample as we use for the estimating the additional target statistics
qu: what do we do with out-of sample predictions of the target statistic or when we want to use different population weights in the estimation and the computation of the target statistic? (Can we use different freq_weights in the moment condition for the target statistic without changing the weights of the estimating equations for the params?)
We already have some of this in GMM and in conditional moment tests, but the latter are designed for specification testing and don't provide estimates of the target parameters.
variable addition score_tests are doing something similar, i.e. estimate score of extra params using correlation and derivatives (score_obs and hessian for augmented model) I guess that would be similar as a one-step estimator for the augmented model. Maybe not, variable augmentation will also affect the included parameters, and under null model the extras have no effect. There might be different cases depending on whether some off-diagonal submatrices of the derivatives, cross-derivatives, are zero. (derivative matrices are not symmetric) A similar case is mean-variance orthogonality in LEF but not in other models. (scale or dispersion estimate from auxiliary estimation or jointly based on extra moment conditions.)
TBC I'm not sure yet what we can support generically.
