The default presentation structure of PowerPoint makes it very easy to build bad bullet point presentations.
One could argue that means PowerPoint has bad default settings and thus is not a very good tool.

Obviously, it's possible to do a bad presentation regardless of the tool, but the really bad ones are always done with PowerPoint. I'm honestly not sure whether it's because of the program or the type of people who use it. Probably a bit of both.
