"If U.S.–Mexico remittances using traditional channels such as banks or large money transfer operators (MTOs), such as Western Union or MoneyGram, are to be heavily taxed or severely restricted, then bitcoin remittances could offer a solution."

I send funds across borders all the time using BTC.  Why would I want a MoneyGram/WesternUnion or similar trail?  Of course you need a semi-educated person to know how to liquidate the coins on the other end.  The masses are learning fast, even among those with almost no schooling.
