really? It has been industry standard and required since the early 70's.
there is a reason for that.
If the terminal is designed to be a crimp connection only, then
soldering is adding a failure point. If the terminal is designed to be a
solder joint, it usually has a low pressure crimp designed to hold the
conductor and terminal together until the solder is applied. If you
solder a high pressure crimp terminal, you weaken the crimp, allowing
the terminal to "relax" at due to the heat of soldering.

I think we are talking about 2 different types of terminals.
