It indeed throws an exception!

System.InvalidOperationException: 'invalid argument: cannot parse capability: chromeOptions
from invalid argument: unrecognized chrome option: useAutomationExtention

The cause is a typo.
Just replace

options.AddAdditionalCapability("useAutomationExtention", false);

by

options.AddAdditionalCapability("useAutomationExtension", false);
