I hate slide decks like these, where every page in the PDF contains one more bullet point than the last one. Maybe I'm particularly bad at this, but I spend way too long scanning each page for the new information. Is it impossible to configure LaTeX to only produce the final animation step as a completed page and skip the intermediate ones?

The beamer class has a [handout] option, which at least attempts to do this (with some corner cases IIRC, but it's been a while).
The ideal way to read a deck like this, is to download the pdf and enter present mode on your pdf viewer so that you can click through each slide and immediately see where the new material has been added.
