If I read between the lines, you're suggesting that I abuse the system and request my data be deleted anyways? No thanks.

  In all fairness, it's a stretch to call it "abuse": it's not uncommon for companies to preemptively extend a legally required service to those outside of the technically required jurisdiction due to the simplicity of not needing to account for who is where and if that's acceptable within their jurisdiction at this time It's also not unreasonable to expect that more jurisdictions may eventually follow suit, and so having to dedicate resources to ensure every request comes from an applicable jurisdiction that they legally are required to handle... ...might just be less preferable than fulfilling some "delete data" requests from less demanding areas. Besides, the idea that large corporations have free unaccountable reign to abuse systems of all sorts, while individuals should be quaking in their boots or snubbing their nose at the mere possibility of inconveniencing an hourly worker under faceless brands is a little over the top, IMO. It's just a request that can be denied.

  Why would it be abuse if you just asked for the data to be deleted? As long as you do not misrepresent things and do so politely, of course. If Disney wants to spent time and money and reputation to figure out if they legally need to delete the data they collected about you and only do so when that's the case, then that's their choice. Same as it was their choice to collect data in the first place. If they instead want to be nice and consumer-orientated, as they like their public image to suggest, or at least save some bucks, then they will hit the delete button. They gotta have such button by now anyway for legal requests from Californians.
