Steve,

I do all my slides in Beamer.  I have settled on a modified metropolis
theme and that works very well and I haven't changed that in years
years.

I am a fan of 10-20-20 and bullet points and do my tables and graphs
usually with knitR.

If you have a clean pandoc template you can generate LaTeX from
Markdown which translates into LyX without ERT. Perhaps a little perl
massaging of the text.

And you can dicate Markdown.
