The implication of the OP is that using "PowerPoint Presentation" makes the guy sound old, but "slide deck" is an older term, so is OP saying that he's younger than everyone else in the meeting? But then why would he complain about that?

It's a really confusing post.

Well, he didn’t say “old.” He said “now everyone knows I’m 40.” Maybe 40 is young by comparison.

But you’re definitely right, it’s confusing framing
