Assessment Reasoning
This is a new public preview feature announcement with no required action and optional adoption. Admin impact is low as it only requires awareness. User impact is moderate where adopted, as it introduces automation for PowerPoint through desktop flows but does not disrupt existing workflows. Urgency and effort remain low because this is an optional preview capability.
