There's a lot of information in the world that isn't on a powerpoint slide.

Yes, of course. It would be useful to include some of that information on the slide to help justify why the session is three hours. As it, I think the author loses credibility as this is an irrational, non-data driven conclusion.
Using evidence to support statements is even more important when introducing a new concept to an audience.

There’s no other data or reasoning presented. Surely other factors must be important and it seems unwise to select a time solely on these two points.
