I deleted my account circa 2016 as well... Far as I can remember, they force you to suspend your own account for 30 days before being able to apply for a full deletion, but that takes 90 days, if at any point you log back in within the 90 days, the whole process is restarted. And this bullshit was only after you went through a squid game tier UI Olympics just to find the place where to kick off the process.

Facebook is one of the most end-user-hostile companies ever. No interface is what it seems to be.

Even downloading your own pictures is very difficult with the actual image hidden in some weird link in a maze of javascript. And the original one can never be downloaded - only a crummy scaled down version. It is a one-way trap.
