If your using the right crimping ring you should not be able to move the elbow. Me personally I would you the crimping ring made by Zurn yes the black one, and the Zurn Crimping tool only. You can't go wrong. Good Luck!

But what if one twists it anyway? Does this compromise the integrity of the crimp?

If crimped correctly, yes they still can turn they will tight though. I have been using both (expansion) and (crimp) pex for 8 year's now I mostly use crimp it is much faster.
