I don't think they can or should, there was a time when there were 2 different "editions" supported by TSR, and it was AD&D 2nd edition that came out on top as other edition faded away.
There already is an "advanced Beholder" but it's called the Hive Mother and it's usually had some differences to make it distinct from the standard Beholder.
That Beholder looks Huge, as in Beholders have maybe 7 or 8 feet in diameter and therefore large. But this one looks like its diameter is more than twice Minsc's height whose someone that's at least 6 feet tall.
If the setting is full on Steampunk, then there would be firearms that do things like Lightning or Fire damage. Definitely Lightning, Fire, Cold, Acid, Thunder and Poison being the more commons ones, with maybe some less common and more esoteric firearms that do Psychic, Necrotic, Radiant and...
But Dune has these details where force shields can deflect bullets and fast moving attacks, which is why slow thrusts are important, and lasguns hitting shields cause a nuclear explosion for both the one with a shield and the one with a lasgun. A "You both die" which sounds like something a...
Theoretical for someone that wants to have things like bullet resistance, also I guess you could have something like "vulnerable to ballistic damage from silver bullets"

I don't think Georgians from the 1800s fought many who were armed with pointy sticks.
But anyways, the existence of things like Ghouls and Zombies and whatever else might prevent some armors going obsolete, even with inventions like percussion caps and rifling on barrels.
There's old Chinese paintings that show soldiers using in an army using Bows, Crossbows and Muskets. It's might be very D&D now with Muskets being in the PHB, with armies being armed liked that.
I don't think Paramount Plus will survive, and I should be cancelling my subscription soon now that Star Trek: Discovery is over, and renewing it whenever Star Trek: Lower Decks comes back before cancelling again.
The one streaming service I won't cancel is Netflix because it's the most...
