Incorrect, it does matter what you do — if you follow the Sweden approach you have 5,500 deaths from Covid in a population of 10 million. If you follow the Denmark+Norway approach you have 863 deaths from Covid in a population of 10 million.

So Sweden has had 6 times the number of deaths that Norway+Denmark (excl Greenland) have had for the same population size and density.

in the case of these 3 Scandinavian countries we really do know what killed all those people - their standards and methodologies are the same.

The reason for the lockdown was to flatten the curve is far less “flat” in Sweden compared to N+D.
