Public immutable ledger as a means of tracing is not an issue XMR has because it's all anonymous.
But even if LEOs wanted to tie all that to names then they'd have to use either bank records (easily avoided - don't buy anything from a bank or licensed exchange and not P2P with bank cards or anything else tied to them i.e. use PayPal under a fake name if you were grandfathered in before all the KYC shit) or they'd have to tie it to shipment addresses for stuff off DNMs which they could, if they bust a vendor, but it doesn't mean jack shit in a court of law - Who ordered a kg of amph to my household? Lord only knows.
