> I really just want my data
Is data posted on FB by other people, which just happens to be (partly) about you, "your" data?

Since he's making the request under the GDPR, yes; if the data relates to him, it's his personal data.
Unfortunately, that tool only gives me all of the data I put on there myself. So nothing I didn’t already have
I believe that is all you are entitled to, under the data portability portion of GDPR: The data subject shall have the right to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which he or she has provided to a controller
For information about you, uploaded by someone else, I thought your rights are not so clear: Where personal data have not been obtained from the data subject, the controller shall provide the data subject with the following information:
(c) the purposes of the processing for which the personal data are intended as well as the legal basis for the processing;
(d) the categories of personal data concerned;
(e) the recipients or categories of recipients of the personal data

The Data Portability article is about receiving that uploaded data in a standard, machine-readable format, and Article 14 on data not obtained from the data subject just says what extra information must be provided about it.
Article 15 - "Right of access by the data subject" - is what defines one's right to a copy of personal data, and has no restriction on the personal data one is entitled to access.
Grandstanding is not my goal; it's a means of attracting attention to a matter that people have been desensitized to. A secondary goal is to cause internal escalation. In the end, I really just want my data, as way to create a path for myself and others.
