I just dunno. I have been reloading military brass since '88. I have broken zero decapping pins (Lee and RCS dies). I have gotten some very good brass that was "milspec" and yep, I removed primer crimps. No big deal, I just cut them out with a countersink, and as a lifelong machinist/mechanic I determined this to be the quickest/best method. I am not, and never been in a hurry to get a high rounds per hour reload count, so removing primps id OK with me (mebbe 1.25 seconds per case). I inspect and process, as necessary, all my brass, commercial and military (9mm, 45 ACP, 5.56, 30-06, and 7.62x51). So, all you that toss their junky milspec brass, send it to me and I'll put it to use...
