    This is likely because PDF became the “file that everyone can open”, just in their web browser. It’s the next best thing to a web page for non-techie consumption. Yes, there’s no reason people can’t open pptx in most cases, but I bet various endpoint protection and just not understanding how to even pick the right program to open the file steps in.

      The stuff just like Firefox automatically downloading files but opening pdf by default is small but can make all the difference.
