I think that's the difference. Facebook could be forced to keep all PII in the EU for the purpose of protecting peoples data from unlawful (EU) use but still have to surrender it to US law enforcement. Would that violate the EU law?

It does. A US warrant is incompatible with the EU privacy garanties.
