Now the daft question - is there any way of�linking the score and extracted parts so that the changes I make in the score are reflected in the parts so that I don't have to re-extract them (I don't want to have to "re-tweak" them)

The easiest way I know of to do this is to edit the score, then paste each staff into the already-formatted extracted parts.
Using the Mass Mover, copy the Violin 1 staff in the score by clicking on the clef and hitting cntl C. I haven't done this in the new version of Finale, but the new behaviour of staff expressions might entail some filtering, like of measure-attached expressions.
Go to the Violin 1 part, click on the clef and hit Backspace (Clear on a Mac) to remove everything, including hairpins.
Without clicking anything else, press cmd V to paste the copied staff into the extracted part.
Hit 4 to respace the part.
Go through and check for collisions, etc. If you only changed articulations, you might be home free! If you changed the content of measures, then you may have to adjust formatting. If you added content to formerly empty measures, you will have to Select All, turn off, then turn on again Multimeasure Rests in the Measure Tool to recreate the rests properly.
Repeat for the other parts.
