Any risk to over shooting MFP set protein requirements every day?

Nope. You can go into goals and change your macros to whatever % you want it to be at.0

Nope you're fine. As long as you don't have any medical reason to keep your protein low, many of us would say that MFP sets their goal too low anyway.0

MFP's suggested protein is already pretty low, so no. For active individuals, especially those in a calorie deficit it is recommended around 1g per pound of lean body mass in protein for muscle retention0
