A few slight amendments that maybe I'd make.
1) If you do a paper W&B, you can fill some of the stuff in cruise on the previous flight, if you know you'll have a quick turn. (Things like BOW won't change)...
2) If you have some dead time between parking brake application and "securing" / "shutdown" / "parking checklist" and you have ACARS, you can request the ATIS. Or you can always pop it on the speakers if you're not ACARS equipped. (Have it as the standby on the secondary stack and you're ready to go) [and if you're really good you can squeeze in a clearance]
I personally like doing the setup flow before the preflight, so I can sit down and everything's ready to go, just gotta get the clearance and boom, ready to go
