Page Rank has never mattered outside of link sales. And the only reason it mattered then was because it was a convenient catchall way to identify link value for the lazy.
Google knows it's PR system is too effed (for the reasons you mentioned among others) to have any real use, so worrying about it is a complete waste of time.

I would much rather google again hide the pagerank values for all websites. What exactly is gained for them to expose this data other than people trying to sell links and increase perceived site value?

Good point. It is nice for personal vanity reasons (and to help explain why some things get ranked above others).
But yeah... damn marketers ruin everything.

I actually agree with you. It's pointless. Google has taken great steps to make it so.

Yep, agreed.
However, PR is completely wrapped up in the workings of the web (at least on the advertising side). Explaining to affiliate managers, marketing directors, etc that PageRank is pretty worthless is a difficult task.

I think page rank still does matter. Its just most webmaster now are on gaining traffic, traffic is the first priority for now then next is pr.

I think pr is still matter, most are waiting for the pr updates. But for me the most important is to gain traffic for the site.
