Here is another interesting (and long) article on this topic, which compares the behavoir of Nuxalk wrt extra syllabic consonants and another member of the same language family called Salish. Salish seems to be a halfway case: the only all obstruent words are some clitics, and vowel epenthesis is used more widely than in Nuxalk (which doesn't utilize it according to this paper).
