Beerus turned out to be another ceiling Goku and Vegeta were bound to break through, and Ultra Instinct was just another super-ability they were going to acquire.

But thankfully, Beerus gets to be a great friend to the Z-Fighters as well as a reasonable god of destruction.

But the thing is, Beerus isn't overpowered. He hasn't been for quite some time. Almost certainly not since Vegito Blue (arguably.) And definitively not since Broly.

Ultra Instinct is probably the best way for Beerus to continue being a reliably strong member of the cast moving forward. Otherwise he may end up going the way of other once-strong companions who ended up falling behind like Tenshinhan or Piccolo or Buu.

taking a fusion warrior to reach his level MEANS being overpowered compared to the heroes

Except it's not just fusion. Jiren was heavily implied to be above the other Gods of Destruction. Ultra Instinct Goku was implied to have surpassed Beerus. Broly is suggested outright to be stronger. And Gogeta implies that fusion actually VASTLY surpasses Beerus' level of strength. That's a decently sized cavalcade of characters who could probably beat Beerus or stand on par with him at the very least now.

Heck, technically speaking Whis was saying Goku and Vegeta could take on Beerus if they teamed up back in Resurrection F. While that's obviously been retconned, the point is that Beerus was never meant to be some unattainably overpowered strength. Him being the strongest served its role in Battle of Gods and that's it.
