The difference between languages and accents is largely a manner of degree. The boundary lines are completely arbitrary. You can pair mutually intelligible modes of speech together in a chain and have non-mutually-intelligible ends of the chain.
Indeed, my point was rather that if Scanian is included, so should ten or so other accents as well.
