Firstly, I'd like to state that I would prefer to keep this article detached from some sort of story as I intend it to be purely informative. However I would not be opposed to writing a follow up tale or phenomena revolving around the entity. While I do believe that story is essential to most parts of the backrooms, this is my first article making it past the "idea" stage and I would like to keep it simple.
Now as for the danger of the entity not being properly communicated, I don't consider beetles to be particularly threatening as they can barely swim, can be outpaced, and cannot fly. Trying to fight them will almost always fail, but their only real strength is their resistance to blunt trauma, and their numbers. They reproduce slowly, and will not pursue you while eating. This would make them fairly easy to preemptively avoid. And even if you were attacked by them, they aren't especially likely to catch you as they are pretty slow.
