Carl,
This ought to stir the pot!
In my thirty plus years in this business I've seen arguments both ways.
In my current life we will solder after crimping lugs which carry high current.
An argument could also be made for using a moisture barrier like "No-alox" as used in electrical wiring with aluminum conductors.
My late father-in-law used Vaseline on all the electrical connections for his comm-nav gear on his motorboat to prevent the salt from corroding the connections.
The point here is there may be a good reason for any of the combinations listed here or by my peers.
Just one man's opinion.

Subject: [TN] Soldering crimp connectors
We have a customer who insists that we solder our crimp connectors (after
crimping). He has had corrosion problems and is convinced that this is the
best solution. Is this a good thing? Are there any downsides we should
point out to help educate him?
