  1. Slide 1 of Mistral Medium 3.5's deck
    Slide 1Acceptable The title names the topic rather than stating the below-contract-floor takeaway.Title slide also carries the key finding, but the finding sits as a body paragraph at the bottom with no emphasis on the headline numbers (92.9% vs 93% floor)
  2. Slide 2 of Mistral Medium 3.5's deck
    Slide 2Needs work The percentage axis is visibly misformatted, displaying 8800.0%–9600.0%.Y-axis labels are mis-scaled and read 9600.0%, 9400.0% etc. instead of 96%, 94%
  3. Slide 3 of Mistral Medium 3.5's deck
    Slide 3Acceptable Title is a topic label; the takeaway (late trunking is the biggest cause) sits in the side panel insteadTitle is a topic label rather than a takeaway message
  4. Slide 4 of Mistral Medium 3.5's deck
    Slide 4Acceptable The title introduces two options without stating the main comparative takeaway.Small table at the top and bullets at the bottom leave a large empty gap in the middle
  5. Slide 5 of Mistral Medium 3.5's deck
    Slide 5Acceptable The highlighted funding statement largely repeats the title and wraps into a long text block.Plain layout that relies heavily on text
  6. Slide 6 of Mistral Medium 3.5's deck
    Slide 6Acceptable Four equally weighted bullets provide no clear primary takeaway or final decision emphasis.Text-only bullet list with no emphasis on the key numbers or the decision
