You want to establish the enemy as a threat, so you make this one monster much scarier than it would otherwise be (through use of a meta-game resource); their takeaway is that this is a very strong monster which needs to be dealt with using one of its prescribed weaknesses.But if they encounter a group of ten such creatures, at a later point, they're going to think that these are all very scary monsters, and they'll need fire or a called shot if they want any chance of putting one down. They'll know through first-hand experience that regular attacks are ineffective. If one of them goes down from a shot to the torso - if anyone even attempts that, given their certain knowledge that it would be ineffective - then it creates a plot hole.</blockquote>
