Very informative presentation, I went through it just for the heck of it and it was very interesting visually. A note on Slide 21 - the text says 4 Maximum Types of Shapes but only 3 are displayed.

That was my subconscious. 4 is the maximum, but I'd actually steer more towards 1 or 2 types when possible. If the diagram is very complex and needs more types, I'd try to split it into several slides.

I saw the slide and the "visual complexity elimination subroutine" kicked in. I'll try to fix that in a future version.
