Spongebob is a comedy show that doesn't take itself seriously enough to have PE characters, it also has zero canon - which makes PEs hard as well since the moral fabric of Spongebob literally changes episode to episode for the main cast, let alone anyone else..

Patrick can be anything from the dumb but mostly loyal friend to a sadistic sociopath.. Squidward can vary from a minor villain to the victim in a single episode alone and Spongebob himself constantly shifts between a harmless simpleton to a creepy stalker / maniac.

even the regular villains of the show such as Mister Krabs and Plankton don't go far enough and even if they did the "zero canon" would mean they could never truly be kept as PE short of being a "one-off" character because any recurring character in Spongebob will go through the morality cycle I mentioned above,
