You know this is the first thing that occurred to me when he said that in Finland they swing outwards... i.e. how do they get out of the bloody house after a heavy snowfall?

Can't say that's ever been a problem.

Our doors are regulated by law to open outwards for safety reasons.

My storm doors swing out. The main doors swing in.
I find the swing of the storm doors also handy to slam into the faces of unwanted sales people!

My rule if snow is so deep I can't open the storm doors?
Stay inside!
