I mean yeah I guess a bug is clearly mildly infuriating. But it’s also a bug. And the way your title is phrased, it’s like PayPal is intentionally preventing you from removing your card. Which it doesn’t seem to be pointing to here. Like I could imagine if they don’t want to let you have no cards on your account without completely closing the account. But the message would say something like that. Like "you’re required to have at least one valid card on your account. " The message isn’t just going to say something like “please try again later” unless its a bug. That’s just telling you that a bug happened and you may need to contact customer support to resolve it.
In my country insurances won’t let you buy one that is necessary-to-drive by adding such “bugs” and impossible captchas for newbie drivers and motorcyclists. Works like a charm in a court - they just say it was a bug
PayPal is notorious for displaying meaningless errors for just about everything, even when it is intentional. Might not be the case here, but they definitely do things like this.
Though if I had to put my money on it, if it isn’t a bug it’s an anti fraud measure of some sort.

Why would you be so sure it’s not intentional?
