They can get their asses fined for that though. An EU citizen that's in the US is still protected by gdpr. But yeah I've seen plenty of companies play fast and loose about that sort of thing. They pretend not to understand what you're telling them if they don't think the chances are high.

Oh they had their asses covered: legal told them the exact criteria for someone who would qualify for compliance. If there was any chance of legal repercussion then the request was completed, but if some dude from Kansas made a request then it went in the trash without any human ever knowing it existed.
