As an audience person (ie, listening to talks) I believe "Powerpoint is easy for presenter, hard for audience" is crazy talk.

I generally follow using the slides, not listening to the dude who's talking for 30min-1h thank you very much.

Making things simple as you present something complex has nothing to do with having a powerpoint presentation or not. Nothing.

Giving a paper to read is just the same as powerpoint, except if the speaker sucks, you don't have to endure that. So yeah. Wrong punch line, okay approach.
