Thanks, appreciate the feedback. One of the goals we have is to make you a better presenter. For v1, we researched presentation best practices and built the app so users automatically do things like limit the amount of text per slide, use consistent fonts and text placements, and add emotional impact to words with high-quality (no clip-art!) images. The constraints are intentional, and in fact was the inspiration for the name, as a Haiku is an art form that promotes creativity through constraint.

That being said, I think there are lots of opportunities in the future to help users add features like bullet points and charts, while still keeping it simple and guiding the users towards creating effective presentations.
