I quit soldering connections in the late 70's
In the 30 years I was crimping there were no problems. (Other than my very first time.)
OTOH: Guys in the shop sometimes soldered and got the contacts contaminated...and the connector would eventually melt due to the heat.
The only time we used a foot-operated hydraulic crimper was in a nuclear power plant when we used 300mcm cables.
Normally 4/0 was the max. we'd deal with.
