will it be less traumatic for the person who finds you after hanging if your head is covered by pillow case?

It doesn't remove the shock but definitely less traumatic I would think.

It was originally done in capital punishment so it was easier for the executioner to pull the lever, it serves no other purpose as when someone finds you they'll remove it

Absolutely. It is quite common for ANY unit to arrive first if they are the clostest to the location. I have heard "horror" stories of fire fighters finding a person that committed suicide. Obviously, a pathologist that will examine your body may be more desensitised but the first dispatched unit may definitely struggle with it for a while.
