Default to crimp, or not to crimp

I would like to know what you folks think about whether or not to crimp the bullet in the case. I think I understand the importance of crimp as far as bullet movement is concerned. ie; if the bullet isn' t crimped, then the bullets in the magazine may dislodge or move in their cases due to the recoil of the gun. Is this correct??

But, as far as accuracy is concerned, which is more accurate, crimped bullet, or un-crimped bullet?
