I feel that the anti-swearing fetish of Hermione & Molly are just personality quirks of these two characters, that stem from two different motivations.
Molly's is the easiest to explain (and shockingly is the most reasonable) but is too often in fanfic way overdone.
Molly's criticism of swearing I feel is not so much as being against swearing but against uncouth behavior in the wrong social setting. Meaning, using low-class language in mixed company. It is pretty clear from the manner of speach of the Weasley children that cursing and swearing is part of their everyday speech and that since they grew up apart from the greater muggle world and pretty cloistered lives at the Burrow, that Weasley family interactions were peppered with mostly lower-class vernacular. What Molly's gets her knickers in a twist about is when the children use this lower-class language around people outside of the immediate family because she is trying to instill in them that the manner that they speak reflect upon them to outside people (that is, those outside of their family.)
It's the equivalent of speaking properly in a job interview, or while at a work site that expects a certain level of decorum. I'm in the Army and I'm from the Massachusetts, I swear like no ones business. Swearing is just part of my work culture and it's a part of the culture I grew up in. However, if I were to become a postal employee working the desk in the post office or a manager in a white-collar office I would expect to be fired if I used the language that I use every day in the Army.
Hermione's anti-cursing/swearing fetish isn't quite so understandable. I chalk it up more to her being a prissy, bossy, person that genuinely wants the people she cares about to be better people and not speaking in a low-class manner (in a similar manner to what I outlined above) is a complaining to them about it is Hermione's way of improving her friends. Although, I personally feel she isn't going about it in the most productive way, and it comes off as patronizingly superior and pushy.
Funnily enough, the Weasleys are from Ottery St Catchpole which is supposed to be in Devon. This means they come from the same region of the country that the West Country accent comes from (the stereotypical pirate accent of Robert Newton's Long John Silver.) So recently when I've been reading fics I've been trying to imagine the Weasleys all using lower class English (minus all of the Arrrghs of pirate speach) and I find it more heart warming when the posh well to do girl (Hermione) ends up with the course plain spoken boy (Ron.)
