Does your colleague have pointy hair, or is he actually Cthulhu in disguise, intent on stealing everybody's sanity?
Joking aside, actually wanting presentation slides to made less comprehensible suggests an intent to deceive the audience...
I spoke to $Person, to find out what any why I needed to do it. Apparently, even though I had produced material to suit the audience, I was in danger of damaging the brand message by making a very complex process seem easy, which could lead to the clients deciding to do the work themselves instead of using us.
$Person failed to see my logic of 1) They have already signed the contract for the work, 2) They have already paid us for the work, 3) Its as good as impossible for them to 'go it alone'. So, being a good drone, I added in all the irrelevant stuff I'd cut out, the length doubled, so much of my time was wasted and the clients time sitting through it.
In the pub afterward, they joked that they thought they were paying us in order to avoid all the legal and administrative aspects of the work!
