What time control do you play?

You’re definitely strong enough by blitz rating to hit 2000 rapid

#3 not necessary, it's still different controls that requires a bit different skills.

Eh idk - I’ve hit 2000 rapid and am pretty close to 1800 blitz atm, depending on which time controls you use 10/0 and 3/2 are very similar games rlly

#5 3/2 is much more like 5/0 than 10/0 tbh

I'd say focus on calculation practice and don't play a bunch of bullet or blitz.
