Well, Danes are also famously direct, so I think it comes off as pretty normal to us. No need to waste too much time beating around the bush.

Yeah, I'd say that French brusqueness was softer than Danish.

Faffing around overly seems rude to me - too much scope for misunderstanding when one have to hope the other person has read between the lines as one intended them.
