> Sweden has no language, income, employment, or skills requirement for obtaining citizenship.

Neither does the US. Like the US, it has a requirement of having lived in the country with residency for 5 years. In the US those 5 years are after getting a Green Card (permanent residency), not after getting the original dual intent visa that allowed for the Green Card.

The Swedish residence requirements seem par for the course[1], if more straightforward than for the US.
