📌 Why this matters
Resizing tables lets you balance visual hierarchy with information density on your slides. When you shrink a table, you're creating breathing room for other elements like charts, images, or key talking points that might need more visual weight. Tables often start oversized by default, dominating slides when they should play a supporting role. A smaller table can actually improve readability by forcing you to be more selective with data, while leaving space for annotations or callouts that help your audience understand what the numbers really mean.
