Tip for anyone writing conference talk submissions: it's potentially fine to put tantalising hints for the audience in your proposed abstract & description. It's *not* fine to leave the *reviewers* guessing as to what you're actually going to talk about (that's part of why there is a whole separate field for notes visible only to reviewers!).

(This does of course assume that the relevant conference submission process provides such a notes field. Even if they don't have one, though, that's likely a sign to forgo the tantalising hints entirely rather than deciding to use them anyway and risk having your proposal rejected for lacking sufficient detail)
