I have just read everything right of the plate and afterwards I don't remember a fraction of what I just briefed
In the modern flight deck, while this is being read, the other pilot should verify that the FMS is programed as such, most airlines have approaches in the data base but some mistakes may be present. Your narrative after the reading of the plate is exactly what we do, explaining intended configurations, modes of automation etc.
