You are mixing Apples and Apple Sauce and coming up with Lumpy Apple Sauce.
Those are PINS not Lugs. |
okay . . .

yes . . .
Quote: | The Lugs are hanging out into the air. No support! |
that's what double wall heat shrink is for . . .

preferred but not necessarily required . . .
especially when using 'softer' fat wires
for battery/starter circuits.

Me thinks the problem with lugs is caused by the problem of not following another good practice, which is that the wire should be tied down in some manner to isolate the crimp connection from vibration. You have to analyze the whole system. Not just one connector style.

Agreed. Nearly all creative arts from cooking to building
airplanes, building houses and certainly all engineering
is a study in (1) properties of materials and (2) management of
energy as a SYSTEM. Policy and procedure can be exceedingly
helpful (as long as it is correct . . . remember the AC43.13
fiasco of about 15 years back?) but it can never replace
understanding of the physics.

Both molex .062 type and AMP mate-n-lok connectors have wrapover insulation supports on the pins, and manage well without further support from the back shell. That is considered adequate, with appropriate wire support in the bundle.
