Hello,
I had a 3-disk raidz2 pool. I wanted to increase throughput and available
storage so I added in another 2 disks into the pool with:
zpool add -f external c12t0d0p0
zpool add -f external c13t0d0p0 (it wouldn't work without -f, and I believe
that's because the fs was online)
I
1) Am I right in my reasoning?
yes
2) Can I remove the new disks from the pool, and re-add them under the
raidz2 pool
copy the data off the pool, destroy and remake the pool, and copy back
3) How can I check how much zfs data is written on the actual disk (say
c12)?

pool and have the data spread all disks in the pool automagically?
Alas, that is not yet possible. See Adam's blog for details:
