Thinking Denmark's success is mostly about vaccinations and masks ignores some other characteristics of Denmark and other "successful countries." These countries are largely healthier, more homogeneous societies with significantly lower rates of obesity, avoidable cancer, coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes, etc - all which are significant risk factors for covid death and hospitalization. I do think lessoning exposure risk through masks and other measures are wise and useful - which some societies are better at doing. I also think its premature to think Denmark is out of the woods, considering that covid is following seasonal patterns and high vaccination rates don't seem to be avoid high infection rates. I hope you are right, but I am skeptical. There is a strong possibility you will return to these restrictions by the end of the year when the winter starts. We will see.
