The danish monarchy is so old that this is so far in the past that it literally does not matter any more. A couple of generations, sure. 1000 years of generations? Nobody cares and I don’t think it’s reasonable to blame anyone for crimes made by ancestors that far in the past. It’s not like we blame me for my ancestors (vikings) pillaging of Englang and other horrible things they did.
Lots of people where profiting from slave trade 200 years ago and we don’t prosecute any ancestors of those people today. I really don’t know what your point is.

You said his parents crimes aren’t his to bear and I argue that children shouldn’t benefit from the crimes of their parents.
