This point may have been raised before, but anyway, unless you're using a
swiss-bank issued credit card [etc. ...], why would anybody want to use
something as completely traceable as a credit card to pay for a remailer

Because not everyone needs paranoid levels of security.
Just because the truly paranoid won't use a service doesn't make it
useless. Vebum sapienti...
