This may be true of "frequentism" in a strict sense, but many statistical methods in common use that are often described as such (including, arguably, NHST) are not consistent with reasonable versions of the likelihood principle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Likelihood_principle . In a sense, one might feasibly argue that these methods are not even properly frequentist.
