Gosh, three years back, this structure and strategy of organization, transition and emphasis is still touted in academia. The "start out with what you say, say it, then tell them what you said" was something we had to do with our presentations and writing.
Our slides each had to be pointed and focused on the message being delivered. In hindsight, most of my presentations ended up just that and not using the bad advice.
If it was that structure I would think it was more for trying to fill in the time or in the end if no one was paying attention, then you could just wait until the end for the summary slide or something.
Anyways, thanks for the insight and pointing out the rhetorical devices.
