I so won't miss Chevy. Pierce is less likeable than either Rygel or Jayne Cobb.
I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

From what little I've seen of the show, there were SS officials more cuddly than that character. Was he written that horrible right from the start, or did the writers start incorporating Chase's personality after exposure to it?

He's always been horrible, although the worst is probably in season 2. Still, he really never gets a lot better.

Thrive to spite them
From the way I read about this it doesn't seem like there's going to be that big of a difference. He quit when everything but 2 shows were filmed. There's only 13 episodes so that's still 11 episodes with Chase.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Someone in the Hollywood Reporter comments (or possibly an addendum to the article) proposed that they just recast Pierce for those two episodes, and no one notices except Abed.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I feel that at the outset, he was clueless-privilege bigoted, but as it went on (especially into Season 2), he became activaly spiteful and malicious.

That somebody should be the guy who replaced him on SNL: Bill Murray.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just noticed this in the Chevy article:
The show recently got a February 7 Season 4 premiere date and is set to return to its regular Thursday 8 PM time slot
Did we know this? I don't remember I knew that.
