Oct 7 at 12:38 comment added Will Sawin There are several different reasons squarefreeness of the level can simplify things, and different ones are relevant for different problems. Beyond listing them, not much can be said. A few off the top of my head: The trace formula simplifies in squarefree level. Atkin-Lehner operations act transitively on the cusps, so the q-expansion at every cusp looks the same. For squarefree level the local representation at p is determined from the coefficient of $q^p$ in the $q$-expansion for primes dividing $p$. For squarefree level mod $p$ exponential sums show up in certain problems, not $p$-adic.
