Well, it's a very old trick. Probably several thousand years, as long as people have traded. Don't give credit to Caldini just because he wrote a popular book!

It's a marketing term. It is often not provable either way and sounds good.

I don't think they are contradicting statements. My impression is that Sweden is more casual, but also more calculated, while continental Europeans are more formal but just throw on a suit and are done with it.

A sloyd knife is not the same as a butter knife. You use a sloyd knife while making a butter knife. Sloyd knife in Swedish is "slöjdkniv".

How would one do inline comments without block comments? I don't know if Python's triple-quote can be used inline, but otherwise that seems like a good solution. I am not entirely familiar with Python comments, does any of his arg

And interestingly Denmark doesn't have this law. Sweden, Norway and Finland all have it, and they all have decently similar cultures. Denmark might be the outlier because of it's small size?
