That just means that the table is too big to be meaningful in a presentation. We have all been at presentations where someone presented a 15X5 table and the result was just a grey blur on the screen that nobody could read. Moreover, you don't want your audience to try to grasp 75 numbers and their interrelations while you are talking. I would stick to a 2X2 or 3X3 table maximum for a presentation. Anything requiring more rows or columns should be graphed. Alternatively add a footnote saying that there were many other control variables added to your model but that you are not displaying them.
