1. T-800, T-X, T-1000 cannot be considered PE because they are simply doing what they are programmed to do; if their program instruct them to commit heinous acts, so be it. Because they are programmed, once again they don't know any better. Their programming are not sophisticated enough to have them grasp the concept of moral agency - Skynet purposely programmed them that way.

2. Black Mass from Samurai Jack (the evil entity Aku is born from) and Xenomorphs seems to act on primitive instinct of consumption and survival rather than specific goals in mind. Those who act on feral instinct and those that are born wicked are not sophisticated enought to understand moral agency so these types of villains do not count as PE.

3. I concur that to become PE villain one has to possess at least human-level IQ to understand moral agency first.

am I guessing right?
