Whenever I'm abroad, I secretly wishes that Sweden (or some other Nordic country) would have been a great colonial power a few hundred years ago. Then the following cultural imperialism could have spread the välfärd of the correct™ way of making beds.

However, a few years ago Ikea removed them in Sweden also, unfortunately. From what I've heard it's because they got too many complaints internationally due to people believing that the covers were broken.
