Besides which, "Where Do I Go" was never the only place it appeared in the first-run productions; the original Mexican production placed the nude scene during "Walking in Space," and an early draft of the film (not that it bears much relation to the stage play) gave the gathering before the White House at the film's end [during "Let the Sun Shine In"] a specific purpose: a Vietnam War protest, during which everyone disrobed and painted a cross on themselves with white face paint, a "human Arlington" in memory of the lives lost.
The sketch obviously wasn't going for their angle, and probably didn't even know that version of the "Let the Sun Shine In" scene was ever a thing, but there are ways to make the nude scene work with that number [or any number other than "Where Do I Go"] and not be inappropriately humorous or exploitative.
