He should rather speak of a Northern Mesolithic or North Eastern European component, since Northern European implies relations to the modern Northern Europeans, but these are both less Mesolithic and less Northern Eurasian than Finns, so this is a misnomer, which makes no sense at all.
The only sense it makes is to make this component look "more Northern European than actual Northern Europeans" (and with "actual Northern Europeans" I mean Northern Europeans since thousands of years already), which is an oxymoron.

According to the spreadsheet Lithuanians and Belarusians have the highest 'North Euro' score, while Finns have the highest 'Baltic Finnish' score.

Well, this doesn't wonder neither, since in Finns you have to substract a stronger Northern Eurasian component and Lit-Bela have less Neolithic influences. This was obvious from the archaeological record already, but in all those cases I wonder where the samples were taken from and whether future results will present us new differentiations, which I would always expect in Lithuania simply from West to East, in Belarussia more complex, but f.e. also along the rivers vs. "the less accessible and favourable woodlands".
Additionally, I wouldn't wonder about this "Northern component" being split up in the future, with more data available, because the Neolithic expansion happened to a large part from inside of the older spectrum, yet there was a differentiation present if comparing f.e. the Eastbaltic area with that of Southern Russia and the Ukraine.
I guess there might be something to find here too, further distinguishing the "real North Eastern Mesolithic" from those elements which were related, but expanded from the South in the Neolithic and Metal Age eras.
If this is recognisable in the archaeological record, why not in the genes? So far most of the time, if the archaeological record and typological analysis showed something clearly, the better the genetic tests were, the more they showed of this...

Aren't Baltic-Finnish people the most Northern-European group of Europeans? As I see it, it's just a subgroup of Northern-Europeans in this research.
I'll post the results of 2 Estonians.

I am wondering about the Basque and Mediterranean components, maybe it is caused by the distant Estonian-Swede ancestry, there was even a discussion on Biodiversity that Swedes have more "Southern-European" genes. Most Swedes on Europe_k=5 have "high"(when compared to the 2 Estonians) Basque or Mediterranean scores.
EDIT: Here's also "EESE1", I think that person is half-Estonian and half-Swedish:
