Pin repair on circuit board

If you examine the typical male and female spade connectors you'll notice tiny indentions, stampings, boogers, or whatever you wish to call them. These keep the 2 from coming apart as easily. The heavy male spades on a limiter have none. Those special springy female contacts in the circuit board serve as shock absorbers. They protect the board as much as keeping the limiter from walking out.
I cannot testify that soldering those is a bad move since I've not done it or even considered it.
