Question #1 has a stupid answer. I had forgotten to remove another setq for org-agenda-custom commands later in my .emacs -- so this one is solved now.

Question #2 is open. Is there any way at all to change the sorting of a to-do list?

Everything is working except the sorting: (org-agenda-sorting-strategy '(time-up)) is so far not having any effect. The TODOs appear in the order of appearance in the file.
