I could picture maybe if you've got a sticky expander ball pulling necks out of alignment, that adding a crimp might push the neck back down into place. Not sure what other mechanism could be responsible for the straightening.

Never experienced that phenomenon myself, but maybe that's because I can't shoot, like most everyone else here.
