I started down the "no soldering" path a few years ago. To me, its easier, cleaner, more controllable, and consistent than I was ever able to be with solder. Crimping with an uninsulated butt splice and heat shrinking leaves a bulge not much wider than the wire itself, and like TTT said... just try pulling it apart when done correctly. Hell, I use a $4 crimper from Harbor Freight! I just crimp in a way that ensures its integrity.
