- having to create the standard (time)
- ensuring the standard works with all the options people want to use
for creating slides
- what happens if you present with non-standard slides
It's asking PGCon to do more work. It means the presenters have to do
more work.
I'm not sure of the benefits. And it takes time away from the core
conference operations.
