If a player has 3 silver longswords in the inventory when first speaking to Xerla, the dialogue skips the initial exchange and trait checks and go straight to the fight option with the silver weapons. No adverse impact on final outcome of quest but it does cause a hiccup in the dialog and prevents the player from having a chance to get the 2,000 gold from Xerla.

Hmmm...the wiki does say that this can happen. I'm wondering if the having the silver weapons ready removes the dialogues to gather/prep the weapons as the quest checks them out, similar to talking to priests at shrines and talking through all options before choosing the last option.

Have you confirmed the Trait check dialogues are removed, leaving only the fight option? Or does having the weapons skips all dialogue straight to the fighting?

Having the weapons in hand skips to the same dialogue box as if you had agreed to get the swords and have returned with them, which is past the dialogue check point for any of the trait checks, including the trait check for the gold.
