It's an ongoing project, most of the frontend stuff simply hasn't actually been made yet.
So far one tool has been launched: https://www.theverge.com/2020/4/30/21241093/facebook-google-...
and i really doubt they're going to stop with just that.
They seem to be still working on it. Other providers are still working on it, so there's a possibility of everything you asked for. Documentation can be added, and hopefully those buttons too.

One has to wonder then: is this coordinated stalling?

I thought you were being harsh as HN is wont to be but when I tried to use the product there was nothing. There is no product. There is a nice big announcement in 2018. There's this announcement at the end of 2019. But there is no actual functionality. It looks like vaporware.

Ah ha, thank you.
Are you looking for https://www.facebook.com/dtp/ ?

Bro, it's literally two clicks away from the Facebook front page!

Just another of FB’s PR stunts, for those who still believe a word they say.
God forbid they actually put a BUTTON somewhere in the actual UI to initiate the transfer. God forbid, people might actually USE THIS.
No build or usage instructions in teh README: https://github.com/google/data-transfer-project
All the Documentation is instructions on how to build custom data transfer projects for YOUR service rather than how to actually use it with Facebook and Google Photos: https://github.com/google/data-transfer-project/tree/master/...
