I forget that the rest of Office even exists, so yeah:-P.
it entice users to do things they shouldn’t do.
I feel like the same could be said of all 3 of those, but more importantly of any software package? Histograms for instance require some effort to make in Excel b/c there should be no spacing between the bars, also the built-in statistical packages have issues e.g. median iirc just picks one (or perhaps uses floor()?) rather than when there is an odd number use the average between the upper and lower valuation. An example using Powerpoint could be to use flashy animations that may work well in the boardroom, but have little place in science where the content should always have the sole focus. Even so, you can use Powerpoint to get the job done, and when used properly it works well?
Nothing in life is free & easy - everything requires effort, especially for it to be done well, b/c of entropy. Anything LaTeX, though I have never personally used Beamer, would do better for math formulas, but Office is an option, that many people around the world choose daily.
Excel and Powerpoint are solid. And Powerpoint gets a bad reputation because it entice users to do things they shouldn’t do.
The rest of MS Office is a piece of shit.
