Both solder and crimp get screwed up, and I'm not sure there is any tool that cures screwing up.
I have two sayings about screwing this up; one for solder and one for crimping.
Solder: "The bigger the glob, the better the job."
Crimping: "Lean into it, it'll release."

No kidding. My jaw hurts after a few crimps. That's why I want a nice crimper like we use at work.
Looks like at least fifty bucks needs to be spent to get a ratcheting crimper that'll last a handful of years.

Heat the joint, not the solder.
Can't think of anything better than use the right size die and pull on the crimp.
I watched a video on Youtube last night. The dude was using this exact wire stripper. He was able to cleanly strip four wires at the same time. Very cool design. The tool has crimp slots, too. Looks like the leverage design is efficient. *sore jaw* Great price, too.
