It is part of it's address... How many 0s and 1s do you think are in there? 1000s! You need the entire addres to find the right place right?

The complete number sequence of 16383 is required to lower gear.
The analogy is not 100% accurate to current cell phone technology, but that is the nature of analogies, metaphors, parables, comparisons, similes, etc.

If your gear hydraulics has failed, and you are manually cranking gear down - many older aircraft do not have pressurized gas or gravity-assist backup systems - value would start at 0 and gradually increase to 16383.
When value is around 8000 - and your arms are really aching from all that cranking - gear is partially (half) extended.
Tower: "Memphis Belle, be advised your nose gear does not appear to be down and locked ".
Memphis Belle: [heavy breathing] "Roger, we know. We are extending manually, down to 8192 at this time".
