Doesn't XF already do this?
Does this add-on then replace XF's functionality for this, or just extend XF's functionality?

It does not change XF's functionality for the registration timer. The addon measures the time to complete the form via javascript, which can be tied to scoring of the parent addon.

ie you can filter out people who have javascript disabled, or who complete the form typing process (not the submit process) way too quickly to be human or legitimate.

helps a lot to catch spammers, try it.
