Default Toilet closet flange extension ring questions. Plumbers, help!

Even with a 1/2" closet flange extension ring, the flange still sits
about 1/4" lower than the new tile floor. Is that okay for a standard
wax ring, or should I get an extra-thick wax ring?
Also, how do I secure the 1/2" flange extension to the existing closet
flange? It just sits on top of it with the bolts running up through
it, but I imagine it could wiggle around... should I screw it down
through the original flange to the sub floor?
Lastly, will the closet flange extension ring leak? I just sits on
the existing flange... won't it leak through that tiny gap as it sits
on the flange without any wax or anything under it?
Thanks!
