yes it is alright but you never know when you want to take an impromptu trip or have an emergency in which you need to travel. I would personally renew it because it is an extra id.
Sure, you can do that. No one is required to have a passport if they aren't travelling. I don't know what China does, but in my country it's easier to renew a passport while the current one is still valid than it is to apply for a new one after the old one expires.I don't know why you'd need to get a passport six months before travelling. They are valid as soon as you get them.

If you are not traveling, no one cares if your passport is expired.

Up to you. Just make sure you have enough lead time to get a new passport.
