I can't help but think that if they did that, it would something like that time on "Taxi" when Andy Kaufman abandoned his "naive" european routine and turned Latka into a used car salesman. No one liked it, and eventually, Kaufman had to turn Latka back into his old persona. If you take away Eugene's "naive" mentally challenged gimmick, you take away the one thing that makes the character unique and Eugene becomes just another midcarder.
In other words, take away the gimmick, and Eugene is basically Gene Snitsky.
