It comes down to a collector's mindset. At the time, everyone (contrarians aside) saw the Traded set as an entity unto itself. The people buying packs looked at them as a separate set with a separate checklist, like a weird added bonus. Although the word 'bonus' doesn't work too well, because the terribly airbrushed headshots look God-awful. That speaks to me the loudest.
