Yes, but it's much more formal and emphasizes the chain of events. 'Powodować' is just 'to cause'.

Absolutely. 'To pociągnęło za sobą wiele zmian' (That led to many changes).

It's rare. Better to say 'przynieść sukcesy' (to bring success).

'Pociągać' is for general rules (Smoking leads to cancer), 'pociągnąć' is for a specific future event (This lie will lead to trouble).

Only if you are breaking up or discussing a very serious mistake. It's too heavy for casual dating.

Yes! 'Burza pociągnęła za sobą liczne zniszczenia' (The storm led to numerous damages).

Only if the topic is serious. If you're texting about a missed meeting, it's fine.

'Poważne' (serious), 'nieuchronne' (inevitable), and 'finansowe' (financial).

In this specific idiom, yes. Without it, the meaning changes completely.

It's very common in both, but slightly more frequent in written news and reports.
