I thought they solder it not because of the costs or failure rate, but for a more compact design. I also think its cheaper to solder it directly on the board (you dont need the extra board for the ram, pins for the ram module and the clip, but not sure about that one)
That was told to me from a manufacture who assembles boards a few years ago (they build controller for industrial electromotors)
