We also now have an education the is more equivalent to a US computer science degree: Software Engineer.

I think the US degrees are more focused on practicality than the Danish version. Basically the Danish universities will teach basic programming in one or two languages and the expect you to be smart enough to figure out the rest.

It’s not that one education is better than the other, but given that I didn’t end up doing reasearch of heavy computational work, I might have preferred a US education.

I'd expect "engineer" (ingeniør) to be a protected title in Denmark just like Sweden, which requires a math heavy university programme?

So the way to call yourself a software engineer without a math-education is to move to a country like US, making even the "Software Engineer"-title problematic.

It is a protected title, and yes, it math heavy, at least the first couple of years.
