Some operators have a policy of the more you verbalise in terms of checking items, the safer the operation. Others prefer the silent cockpit concept where the crew only verbalise essential items. It then becomes the chief pilots personal opinion to define what are perceived as essential items.

Most seem to err on the side of excessive verbalisation. Mainly because it theoretically sounds more professional on the CVR if there is an incident and the crew stand less chance of being nailed in court
