Danish language is as far from "no translation at all" as can be:

Currently at 100% translated.

Danish language worked perfectly fine... until it was removed.

Users would be able to use the applications in danish language had
danish language not been removed.

Its ironic that removing the danish translation have now caused the
situation you try to avoid.

Telling danish users to just use swedish and that this will benefit them
makes no sense.
