I remember riding shot gun many moons ago with an instructor (who, then had 900 hours of instructing time on Cessna singles).
He was "checking out" on a Piper Arrow.
Every single circuit he flew, he said "Undercarriage down and locked" - but when his instructor pointed out that the wheels were still up and locked he simply replied "Can't get out of saying it - and doing nothing". This lasted over an hour.
The discussion over the years has been "do you teach for type - or teach a standard check list that should work on all types, if applicable".
