So finally all those days I spent hanging around the EAC forums are paying off! Yes, you are correct that there is only an extraction error if it says "suspicious position..." or some other error message.

Here is the thing about Burst Mode: there is no error detection at all. It simply reads through the track as fast as it can and write the data to the file. This is why the track quality is always 100%, because the program never re-reads a sector, and thus according to the quote above, the track quality will be reported at 100%. It will not report any error messages unless ther is a serious problem and it can't read the disc at all. This is why we like secure mode .
