Just my opinion, but...
Soldering alters the temper of the wire and also leaves it more prone to vibration induced breakage due at the transition point from bare wire to the soldered area.
I used to work for NASA on Shuttle and Space Station support and , IIRC, solder connections are a No-No!

A good crimp connection means using the correct tool for the job. Pliers and ViceGrips just don't cut it.

That means crimped, and then soldered.
