This is generally considered a bad practice. While 'Wipe Right' is a consistent transition, using 'Zoom' on the concluding slide creates a jarring and inconsistent experience. Here's why:

• Inconsistency Disrupts Flow: The abrupt change in transition style on the final slide can feel jarring and unprofessional. It breaks the established visual rhythm of the presentation.
• Potential for Distraction: The 'Zoom' transition, being more visually dynamic than the 'Wipe Right', can draw unnecessary attention to the concluding slide, potentially distracting from the key message.
• Lack of Cohesion: The inconsistent transition suggests a lack of careful planning and attention to detail. This can undermine the presenter's credibility.
• Audience Perception: The audience may perceive the inconsistent transition as careless or unprofessional, potentially detracting from their overall impression of the presentation.

The presenter should strive for consistency throughout the presentation. If a different transition is desired for the concluding slide, it should be a transition that is visually similar in style and duration to the other transitions used, or a subtle variation that doesn't feel jarring.
