I did not realize that the Speech Introductions were not visible to everyone.  I became the FTH admin shortly after joining my club, so I had just assumed that everyone saw the Introductions. I find that it is really helpful to have the Introductions visible. I recently joined another club and I wondered why my Evaluator could not see my Introduction that I had so carefully prepared to make it easy on him.
We have Evaluators introduce the speech and the Toastmaster introduce the Speaker -- "Speaker Name, Speech Title, Speech TItle, Speaker Name" -- just like in contests. My third club uses Easy-Speak and Introductions are visible to members.
As far as saving paper -- we sure save a lot of paper by being online with ZOOM -- I know because I was the one who printed the Agendas and brought them to in-person meetings --  for the last 9 years until we started meeting with ZOOM in March 2020.  I used to print the agenda double-sided and shrink the pages to make it all fit on a single-sheet of double-sided paper.  I was also the one who recycled the old agendas.
It would be terrific to have the Introductions visible to all.  [By the way, I prefer FTH to Easy-Speak -- and I am the VPE for both clubs.]

There many reasons why they are not viewable to everyone.
What kink of surprise would there be if everyone need the intro before the speaker was ready to present.
The Speaker should be talking to their evaluator before the speech on what they want the evaluator to focus on\, evaluator should hear the intro at the same time as everyone else, it should be part of the evaluation.
Thank you,
