I think you are getting a bit too aggressive about some slides with poor UI. You are asking a lot of the slide authors to minor facilitate secondary usage at the expense of primary usage. It could be a lot worse, they could be like 99% of the other slides in the industry: completely worthless without listening to the accompanying lecture.

  Primary considerations are centered around the presenter himself. He is the primary user of the slides, so whichever system he is most comfortable with will be the obvious choice. Asking that the presenter dedicate less time to preparation and more time to constructing some sort of elaborate LLVM/emscripten PDF presentation just for the benefit of secondary users who won't/can't use arrow keys is fairly unreasonable.

  The information is not inaccessible, just annoying for some to access. Making it actually possible to see the deck you officially posted online is neither facilitation or minor. Thankfully, it is "actually possible" to see the deck.
