Technical need for verification?

Technical need for verbal verification?
Some airlines have mandatory standard verbal callouts to confirm that the landing gear is up. For example:
“Positive rate” by Pilot Monitoring (PM) - used by most airlines
“Gear up” by Pilot Flying (PF) - used by most airlines
“Gear up selected” (PM) - only used by a few airlines
“Gear is up” (PM) - only used by a few airlines

Is there a technical need to have a mandatory call for "gear up selected" and "gear is up"?
Will it improve safety?
Too much talking?
How do you do it at your airline?
What does the manufacturers say Boeing, Airbus, Beech, Dash, EMB and others please?
