Perhaps just random luck?

Was this by any chance, Al Hartley, who helped broker the deal with (and drew) the Spire Christian Comics: https://comicsworthreading.com/2010/05/14/archies-christian-comics/

I can say for certain that Dan DeCarlo (who I am pretty sure did the cover for Betty and Me #55, though it's not credited, and created Sabrina and Josie and Cheryl Blossom) tried to get away with as much possible innuendo as he could. He spent a considerable time cartooning for Playboy as well.

He was still at it in the 90s:
