The content is fine, but anything associated with them that can be deemed as identifiable needs to go if OP requests the right to be forgotten. Most services will just “censor” the username by replacing it with “deleted” or something. They don’t have to get rid of everything else.
Originally I didn’t mind tying the comment to my identity, but once I decide to delete my account, I want all such ties gone. Case in point: links to open-source projects with my name in them.
“You shouldn’t have posted it in the first place” is just victim blaming.
Ehh you ain’t wrong but there is not recourse once you are in victim position online. We all made this mistake. Now it is play area for feds, bots and foreign agents. So just got to take care of your privacy and security on the front end.
If they want to adhere to EU laws I think they might have to, might still fuck over people from other places though.

What if a comment itself includes some kind of personal data such as a link that explicitly ties the comment to a person?
Don’t post shit that can be linked to you easily.
People have some weird expectation from a shiti online business. Take of your shit, you can’t rely on the counterparties to protect you.

They will not restore EU comments without having to read those. It would violate GDPR and even a mistake or two will hurt their bottom line so so bad
