No point using the escape chutes unless remaining on board would present a hazard.

With no fire risk apparent then staying on board and exiting via normal steps amkes more sense.

People get hurt, often quite badly, going down chutes so there is no point putting the pax at risk on the bouncy castle.

I suspect that the flaps were retracted prior to engine shutdown (quite possibly via the normal after landing checklist procedure)
