The document criticizes the cognitive style of standard PowerPoint presentations. It argues that PowerPoint forces information into a rigid format that fragments data, uses excessive graphics and formatting rather than focusing on content, and can distort complex statistical evidence. As an example, it shows how PowerPoint templates break up a table of cancer survival rates into 6 chaotic slides that are incoherent and fail to effectively convey the data. The document claims this "chartjunk" indicates a lack of understanding of evidence and suggests PowerPoint may not be suitable for presentations requiring deep analysis of statistical data.
