Morphology

traceless = trace (transparent) = trace + less

The word is built transparently from 'trace' + '-less', meaning 'without trace' or 'leaving no trace behind'.

Etymology

Traceless is simply trace + -less, where trace means 'a mark or sign' and -less means 'without'. Think of someone leaving no footprints or marks — that's why traceless means leaving no sign behind.
