How to respond here? Context: ~30yo, met IRL at charity event, texting for 3 weeks because she was travelling, first date in cafe, good connection, longer walk w/ some holding hands, making out at goodbye. After that, she became barely responsive, I reengaged after 5 days with Ryan G meme, good response, then I moved on to suggest new date, now this.

Well, it all points to a recent break-up she had.
Don't think it's a too big of the concern, otherwise the final smiley wouldn't be there.

Exactly, you want her to open up about it so you can reframe it afterwards

Mhm. Do you have a particular answer in mind?
I assume that with her breakup feelings, she's the only one that can deal with them. Also I'm not sure if I should raise this topic and we end up talking about her previous bf.
So I rather thought about only assuring her that nothing will go too fast. Like this:
No worries, [name]. We can just do the things that we'll both feel good about.
What do you think?
