Yes, this is key.  Org, for all of its power, is not a panacea.  You do
need to think about the target(s).

I have found that, in my case, for lectures, the simpler the slide, the
more likely it is going to work when exporting as PDF (beamer) and HTML
(including the various presentation flavours, but especially
reveal.js).  And the bonus is that the simpler slides work better for
pedagogical reasons as well!

I think this is true whether you have all your content in one org file
or split into smaller files.

Anyway, good luck with your styling etc.!
