Th only place where crimping is mandatory is at the thermistor legs, since solder has been reported to melt due to the heat from the hotend.....
Exactly. Anything next to the hotend should be crimped.
How about heated bed - RAMPS wirings? they are hot too, right? ( just building my first printer and this is a interesting topic)

Every PCB-based heated bed that I have seen has the wires and a power LED soldered to it, so I would take that as precedent. I have read suggestions not to "tin" the wires being attached to screw terminals on your controller board, because the solder prevents the screw from getting a good crush/bite on the wire.....
