You really can't go by webmaster tools completely because it doesn't reveal all of its information to you. Its just like anything out there, you gotta take it for what it is. I would also say that pinging wouldn't hurt the sites.

One of the big things with link crawling though is it is designed to increase the speed at which google finds the property or help it find a property it would never crawl on its own due to low value or obscure location.
Link crawling is only as valuable as the link it crawls and the time it saves. It's hard to do a study on it because not all the backlinks have exactly the same value, even two identical pages on the same site could have a slightly different weight.
I think you did a great job on a detailed case study that shows Link Crawling helps speed up the process, but I don't think we can draw any results on how it impacts rank.
That being said I hope to see more case studies from you in the future because you've done solid and detailed work - hell I may even subsidize a few studies if you throw in a whitepaper on them.
Great Job +rep

So here is how it works,
There are links that may never be found by Google (Profiles for example) and others that may take time to be found, well to get around this pinging services were created in order to "Ping the links" and let Google know they exist.
Once pinged, Google will come crawl the link and add it to its "Crawled Database". It is at this point that the links begin working for you. From here, Google will then take a portion of those links and then add them to its "Indexed Database" giving the links even more juice.
I find link indexing services to work much better than crawling services. I used to use linklicious and nuclear link crawler. I switched to backlinks indexer but they are overpriced. Ended up with nuclear link indexer since I got a good deal when they first opened. So far the results have been pretty good.
Obviously, low quality links still have issues but other links seem to do pretty well.

Low quality links are supposed to be part of a link building strategy, they are cheap high volume links used for IP diversity and for extra juice. Its a ways of money spending time "Indexing your links", the ROI isn't worth the benefit, you could use that extra money just buying more links to be crawled. <------ a percent of those are going to become indexed naturally for free anyway!
It make no sense to "buy links" and then pay ridiculous money and spend the time to index them...just buy indexed links.

A good link building strategy has a good foundation of High PR Backlinks (High PR home page links, articles on high PR domains etc) and then you get your cheap, high volume links to add your IP Diveristy, extra juice and give it a natural look.
The great thing about this, is a lot of those links you got for cheap, once crawled will start working for you and then some will become indexed naturally, for free. Whats the point of spending all that money indexing them? To make them more powerful? That's not their purpose...that's what the High PR links are for.

Do you suggest we use indexing services for these high quality links then? Or will they get crawled because they are high quality?
For example, creating a tier of web 2.0 sites I would consider high quality correct? However, getting them indexed takes time by themselves... so would we use an indexing service for these types of links? BMR and other blog networks dont need indexing services.
The HighPR links you get, are from HighPR Authority websites/pages that are already indexed. Google will come back to those sites to see if something is new. So for those links you don't have to use indexing services.
The Web2.0 sites you mentioned, will be seen by Google because they follow the link on the HighPR sites. Once crawled, later they will add those to the indexed sites database. After a check of some factors, a site is given a position. The clue is to have a good onpage seo and quality linkprofile.
As mentioned earlier in this topic, you got to have high pr backlinks, low pr, nofollow, from different sites, relevant sites, forum profiles, comments homepage links etc. However, the low quality are not really necessary for some niches/keywords, depends on the competition.
I use several free and paid keyword/research services to see what is probably necessary... When using HKSEO, you would have 1 place to build good link diversity, instead of dozens of services.....
Hope this works for you...
