I understood it as power causes responsibility, and therefore, no power means no responsibility. If they’re just correlated, then there’s no way of knowing if no power is also correlated with no responsibility.

I agree with this.
If they’re just correlated, then there’s no way of knowing if no power is also correlated with no responsibility.
If you’re using that line of thought, then I’ll also agree with you that there would be strong correlation with “no power equals no responsibility”, but I’m not sure how that fact is helpful or moves us forward in a line of thinking. When someone cites the argument of “correlation vs causation” usually means “we can’t tell if its actually causation. Its possible its just correlation”. Yet here we agree it is unambiguously causation. Your first sentence in this post encapsulate this perfectly.
“I understood it as power causes responsibility”. cause = causation
This is why I was confused with your citation of the “correlation vs causation” argument.
I’m not seeing a correlation only argument here. Where would there be correlation without causation with what I’ve posted?
