Question is, can we put everything to checklists? As someone mentioned, pilots should be able to think, not only to follow checklists. And even if we add it, something will still be left out.

Centaurus mentioned how many crews fail to check this instruments during after take-off checks while at simulator checks. Shouldn't this be a moment to strenghten their understanding of the system, its philosophy, traps, how it works, and what should be checked. Good training would mean getting crews to understand what's going on, not just adding things to checklists for people to blindly follow them.
