You make this assertion elsewhere in the thread. It is incorrect. The entirety of the legislation is 88 pages long and it is really quite straightforward (full link preserved) [1].
Here is a set of (easily available) interactive tools, explainers and guidelines from ICO in the UK which explicitly outline what compliance looks like and what steps you can take to achieve and demonstrate it [2]. It’s available as a 162 page PDF, if you insist on counting pages, but much of it relates to the processing of sensitive data or data relating to children which the majority or orgs can skip.

Indeed it is: the first 100 pages of the text detailing what compliance means are a manual for how to read the remaining 5000 pages, and a warning that there will be per-country variants of the law, which I'm sure will all be very clear, made easily available and not at all weird or objectionable, or require being well-versed in the legal intricacies of said member state at all !
