Add ability to compare and combine two PPT files

Would be so helpful to be able to copy PowerPoint slides along with corresponding Sections and retain those sections from one PowerPoint to another without having to recreate all the sections again in the new PowerPoint. Takes so much time to recreate and risks mistakes being made for something that was already completed.
Thank you for your consideration.

Would like to combine decks into 1 presentation without having to literally move new slides in. In Adobe i can combine files ... which means I take the PPTs i get from 10 people and print them to PDF, and then combined the PDFs as a work around. Pasting somebody's slides into a master version means anytime somebody updates their section and sends me a new file, I have to delete their slides from the master and add the new file back in. Time consuming and ripe for errors. If I could combine the PPTs into a show, it wouldn't require deleting and re-pasting.

Why is this feature available for Windows, but not for Mac?
I have the expectation to get the same performance for paying the same price. -

I don’t understand that there is this function for windows and not for Mac.

Following up on this. How is it possible that you "upgraded" to 2019 with your PowerPoint for Mac and we can't compare two powerpoints - something that was possible back in the 2011 issue. Is this coming down to just arrogance or is there a technical issue - can the admins at MSFT grow a pair and speak up?

To the admins here: LOOK AT PPT FOR THE WEB! There is a missing feature with almost 5k votes and zero admin responses. WTF?!

This is a silly request. There are too many moving parts and variables here, and I think everyone here has a different idea of what comparing and combining to PPT files actually means. This is a popular request but not a practical one, and would take insane amounts of artificial intelligence to make it work. The PPT team could resolve 50 other problems in the time and resources it would take to implement this.

As I can't 'like' Richard's comment from January 15, 2020 15:21, I will just repost part of it.
If the idea is to cripple the Mac version so that people will move to PCs and Windows, it's not going to work.

I recently "upgraded" to 2019 Powerpoint for Mac (from 2011). Just realized that the Review-Compare feature is missing. Apparently, it's been missing for a long time, and despite the assurance above that the team is reviewing the suggestion, no action! Please prioritize this basic functionality.

You now have close to 100 requests to add this back in and yet you have not done it. If the idea is to cripple the Mac version so that people will move to PCs and Windows, it's not going to work.
