Whoops, sorry, you *did* answer "what went wrong".
> param_names <- c("param1", "param2", "param3", "param4", "param5", "param6")

 #Error in (function (classes, fdef, mtable)  :
 #unable to find an inherited method for function ‘extract’ for
signature ‘"SpatRaster", "character"’

OK.  The problem is that the extract() function didn't know what to do.
What does the documentation for 'extract' say?
The error message seems to say that it is not defined for first argument being
a SpatRaster and second argument being of type character.

(By the way, I'm having trouble updating the terra package in Ubuntu 22.04.
That's why I'm not trying any of this out.)

Here's what ?extract starts with:

Extract values from a SpatRaster for a set of locations. The
     locations can be a SpatVector (points, lines, polygons), a
     data.frame or matrix with (x, y) or (longitude, latitude - in that
     order!) coordinates, or a vector with cell numbers.

It does NOT say that the set of locations can be a vector of strings.
