You can harvest the yeast before the alcohol content gets too high and kills it. Then repitch (with added nutrients) into a new batch. You may have to use 2 bottles, one active, the other for sedimentation/yeast harvesting. Yeast mass also grows, so you could reuse the extra for additional or larger tanks, baking, etc.
Calculated Yeast Count vs. mL slurry from starter
Two things you'll have to watch out for when using slurry estimates is the percentage of non-yeast material in your slurry and the viability of your yeast. While your estimated concentration of yeast looks good, what protocol did you use to arrive at it? Again your starter process looks fine, but just remember that without doing a visual viable cell count it's just an estimate.
Adding yeast when bottling, if so, when, how much, what container?
The yeast, either what was left or what you added, can't ferment sugar that isn't there. If all the fermentable sugar got used up in the primary and secondary, then the carbonation level will depend only on how much sugar was added at bottling.

The cold hard truth about rinsing yeast with boiled water
Yeast cells have two metabolic pathways. In the presence of oxygen and glucose concentration levels below the Crabtree threshold, yeast cells respire. During respiration, yeast cells consume a carbon source (e.g., sugar) and produce water and carbon dioxide gas.
D47 yeast | Homebrew Talk - Beer, Wine, Mead, & Cider Brewing ...
Wine yeast has a lower temp range than the manufacturers would suggest; I recently put a DV10/71B mixed starter in my fridge to cold-crash the yeast and it kept fermenting away at ~38F for about a week. Once started, it's hard to stop wine yeasts unless you completely freeze the medium.
