I think a main issue would be that any other character would have limited abilities, sligs can only shoot and glukkons can't do anything but scare others shitless. We say abe is the skinny guy with no weapons but in game he yields grenades and uses sligs to kill enemies, also these brawl games are never canonical, so it shouldnt really affect oddworld's image, if not it would improve it as people may think 'this guy seems strange, why does he "chant" and why does he turn into this monster?' they may research the game and play it themselves and become an oddworld fan.
