Our reading of where this law's duties sit in each framework, and in the NIST Privacy Framework, line by line beside each duty above. It never says that running a control meets the law. How we read a framework against the law

Logging duty
Where a controller restricts the data subject's right of access under Article 28, it must document the factual and legal reasons for the restriction and place the documentation at the Commissioner's disposal on request. The other Articles this row cites (21 to 27, 29 to 37, 39, 40) set rights, time limits and information duties and state no record, apart from the burden of proof in Articles 21 and 22 on a request alleged to be manifestly unfounded. The row cites no scope clause, so no territorial hook is read.

What this law does
Article 23 requires a controller, when it collects personal data directly from a person, to give them its identity and contact details, the purpose and legal basis, the recipients, any cross-border transfer, the retention period, and their rights. Article 24 extends a fuller version of that notice to data obtained from elsewhere, due within a reasonable time and no later than the first communication with the person or the first disclosure of the data.
Article 26 gives a person the right to confirmation of whether their data are processed, access to the data, and information on the purpose, categories, recipients and retention period, while article 28 limits that access only to the extent and duration necessary and proportionate in a democratic society. Article 29 gives a right to rectification of inaccurate data and completion of incomplete data.
Article 30 gives a right to erasure on listed grounds including that the data are no longer necessary, consent has been withdrawn, the person has objected, or the processing was unlawful. Article 31 gives a right to restriction of processing while accuracy is disputed, an objection is pending, or the data are needed only for a legal claim.
Article 33 requires the controller to tell every recipient the data were disclosed to about a correction, erasure or restriction, unless that is impossible or disproportionately burdensome. Article 36 gives a right to receive previously supplied personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to transmit it to another controller without hindrance.
Article 37 gives an unconditional right to object to processing for direct marketing, including related profiling, requiring the controller to stop on the first objection and to flag this right clearly and separately no later than the first contact with the person.
