Maybe because I am in research, but the middle parts of research talks are talking about their own research. If you don’t know that material enough to talk about it in detail impromptu then you have no business giving talks about that topic.
Intros and ends though I agree require careful thought to appeal to the right audience and give the right message.

There are many things I am an expert in that I'm not an expert in communicating about impromptu- I've been to many talks where the speaker is clearly an expert but was not prepared to speak. I certainly think there are people for who expertise == ability to speak about it, but that's certainly not always or usually the case.
