Sorry, Joe.

The northern boundary of the Neanderthal world crosses southern Denmark, and Denmark is Scandinavian.

Sure, but note that the northernmost Neanderthal sites actually found are in northern Germany, not Denmark.
Of course, it's reasonable to speculate that Neanderthals might have wandered across today's border in search of game, especially in the summertime.
But until/unless major Neanderthal sites are reported from Denmark, that still just makes them tourists in Scandinavia, not citizens... ;-)
